This document describes the way to implement a Mageia Mirror.
1) Prerequisite
---------------
The expected size of the mirror is around 1.8-2TB.
The mirror only contains the last 3 stable releases + the development
branch called cauldron.
For older unsupported releases, you can find them at the archive
provided by distrib-coffee mirror:
https://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia-archive/
Look here to see the (planned) end of support date for each version:
https://www.mageia.org/en/support/#lifecycle
You need rsync software to synchronise the tree.
2) Official source
------------------
For a public mirror, we encourage you to use one of our Tier1 mirrors.
The servers below synchronise the tree directly from the Mageia rsync server.
Check https://mirrors.mageia.org/ for their bandwidths.
Check https://mirrors.mageia.org/status for their current statuses.
o rsync://mageia.c3sl.ufpr.br/mageia/
located in Curitiba (Brasil)
o rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/mirrors/mageia/
located in USA and Europe
o rsync://ftp.acc.umu.se/mirror/mageia/
located in Umea (Sweden)
o rsync://mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/mageia/
located in Princeton (USA)
o rsync://distro.ibiblio.org/mageia/
located in Durham (USA)
3) Rsync options
----------------
Ensure you're using at least these options:
-a -H
We appreciate if, in addition, you also add the options:
--delete-after -S
Don't use the compression and checksum options, they create excessive
load on the remote server
4) Automated update procedure
-----------------------------
The tree must be synchronized at least every 2 hours.
Tier 1 mirrors should preferably sync at least every hour.
Please ensure that another rsync process is not started while a first
one is still running. Use a lock file.
5) Registering your mirror
--------------------------
Go to https://mirrors.mageia.org/new and enter all possible protocols.
6) Subscribe to the mirrors-announce mailing list
-------------------------------------------------
To get infos about new releases uploaded to the mirrors and other mirror
updates, you can subscribe to the mirrors-announce mailing list :
