Yum and partial downloads.

This was a question asked of me by one of our network admins.

Background.

Today, while doing the updates on my machine at work, one of the packages was close to 300MB in size. Yum tried to download this file multiple times with no success. It kept timing out with the below 1000 Bytes/second for over 30 seconds.

In one case, the file was at 99% complete when it stopped. Restarted on a different mirror at 0%

Due to firewall rules there is bandwidth management and it allows downloads to start at a high speed only to slow down at 25MB.


The Question.

The network admin asked if Fedora was like Ubuntu that will continue downloading where it left off? I stated I doubted it as the display kept going back to zero
