Re: [eclipse-mirrors] Size of a full Eclipse mirror?


Hello every body,


A couple of weeks ago we hit that problem too...
After discussing with eclipse-webmaster, it was suggest to do a clean first
and let it run even when there are errors :


<snip>

# path to your RSYNC binary
# RSYNC=/usr/bin/rsync
# Adapted the RSYNC definition based on the advise from the administrators
# mailing list
# RSYNC="/usr/bin/rsync --delete-excluded --exclude=drops/I*
--exclude=drops/N* "i
# MODIFIED based on recommendation of eclipse server admin
RSYNC="/usr/bin/rsync --delete-excluded --exclude=drops/N*
--exclude=drops/I* --exclude=nightly/* --exclude=drops/\d+.\d+.\d+/N* 
--delete  --ignore-errors "

</snip>

What was detected :
_ rsync failed during clean up --> clean up was not completed successfully
(continued to grow)
_ Right before the latest release there were many many builds produced => a
lot of changes on the master server generating waves of updates (making the
process less stable).
_ deletion & updates generated jobs that were extremely long so putting the
"--ignore-errors" allowed to have each run to be as best as possible 

I dunno why I put 3 points while there is in fact 2 major problems ...
I hope this helps ...

\T,
