An overview of the provisioning efforts can be found in the SA2 provisioning metrics spreadsheet. The information is updated daily.
EGI's UMD Provisioning activity governs and executes two main processes:
- Software Provisioning Process: That handles software delivery from Technology Providers, Quality Assurance and Reporting.
- UMD Release Process: That collects tested Products per Platform and Architecture (PPAs) into UMD Releases.
You can monitor the current status of the software provisioning process using
UMD Repositories
- Untested: includes everything that is currently in the Unverified or In Verification State, URL: http://repository.egi.eu/sw/untested/umd/
- Testing: includes everything that is currently in the Stage Rollout or UMD-Store State, URL: http://repository.egi.eu/sw/testing/umd/
- Release Candidate: includes releases that are about to be published, URL: http://repository.egi.eu/sw/production/umd/candidate/
- Production includes everything that is released to production, URL: http://repository.egi.eu/sw/production/umd/
Mirroring of UMD Repositories
We provide some information needed in order to mirror UMD repositories
Communication
- Mailing-lists
- for announcements (changes, new repos, etc): mirror-egi at egi.eu
- for discussion: mirror-egi-d at egi.eu
Repos size estimates
- file.txt with "du -hs /<dir_repos>
Export License
Do we need something similar to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/Mirroring#Export_Compliance ?
Mirroring
- Using rsync
- do we have a rsync server? seems no ("rsync: failed to connect to repository.egi.eu: Connection timed out (110)")
rsync -vaH --exclude=pattern_to_exclude --numeric-ids --delete --delete-after --delay-updates rsync://repository.egi.eu/sw/production/umd ${LOCAL_DIR}
- Using lftp
- Depending on what repositories you want to mirror and the space you have available (see #Repos size estimates you can use something similar:
- to create the mirror for the first time:
lftp -c mirror --verbose --exclude 'candidate/' --exclude '1/' --exclude '2/' http://repository.egi.eu/sw/production/umd/ ${LOCAL_DIR}
- to removes any local packages that no longer exist on the source, and only downloads newer package versions from the host mirror:
lftp -c mirror -–delete –-only-newer http://repository.egi.eu/sw/production/umd/ ${LOCAL_DIR}
