Bug 31329 – rsync.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu mirror appears to be out of sync.

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Mirrors

[Description Peter Beekman 2003-10-16 20:49:41 UTC]

Mirror had these leading comments:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
** August 19, 2003 **
  Bits back online.

** August 13, 2003 **
  One of the disk arrays is offline to clear up some filesystem
  corruption.  If you see errors from rsync akin to 'chroot failed' this
  is why.

this is the one i tried reporting in #31332 but didn't have a record of which
server it was. I run a local rsync mirror for an internal network of over
a dozen gentoo boxes but hadn't felt eligible to mirror directly from rsync1
as my rsync mirror is not publicly accessible. But sure enough its the one
i synced to at noon  today. I'm confirming this server is out of sync still.

Removed from .us, .namerica and main rotations.  Sent an 
email to contact.

[Comment 3 Peter Penkala 2003-10-22 16:59:58 UTC]

Server is back up.  Was syncing with gentoo-x86-portage, which
isn't on the cluster.
