Description lsuarezpotts 2002-09-20 00:14:15 UTC 
Hi
As we discussed, we'd like to reorganize the files on CN mirrors to /stable, /developer, etc., and use, in transition, symbolic links. During this period, the mirrors will need to be counseled that things are okay and that we don't have duplicate items.

I am unfamiliar with how to request CN ops to create the symlinks.
Would you be able to draft a short statement I can then file with Ops? As well, handle the mirrors discussion?
I would like this to be done before Tuesday.
Thanks
louis

in progress, will send via email in a second, minute, ...
Comment 2 stx123 2002-09-23 18:26:54 UTC 
part 1 (statement for ops) done.
If I don't get feedback about the prefered method from you (or ops) I
will go ahead with a vage warning to the mirrors list on tuesday.

Comment 5 lsuarezpotts 2002-09-26 04:26:57 UTC 
Hi, reopening to report progress.
From Ops IZ 11787: 
"all the hard links have been made and have been rsync'd.  let me know when they are ready to have the old stuff removed."

awaiting your indication.
-cheers,
louis

OK, so, it might be time to reassign to support :-(
Directories below
http://ny1.mirror.openoffice.org/stable/
are empty. Is the sync still ongoing?
Comment 7 lsuarezpotts 2002-09-26 17:59:15 UTC 
will check on this.

Comment 8 lsuarezpotts 2002-09-26 19:49:46 UTC 
reassigning to support.
sf1 does have the directories. But just checked at 11:40 and ny1 still does not have the files in the directories.

Kenneth/Brian: this seems to be a version of IZ 7853. Please coordinate with ops to make sure that ny1--the primary mirror server--has the files.
thanks
Louis
Comment 9 lsuarezpotts 2002-09-26 23:22:49 UTC 
hi, a new development: /developer seems to be read only.
it must be write, too.
K, B, is this an artifact of the rsync process?
thanks

Please check the /developer directory now.
Comment 11 stx123 2002-10-01 22:26:50 UTC 
Hi, /developer is ok - that was issue 7924.
The synchronisation between ny1/sf1 seems finished.
Comment 12 Unknown 2002-10-01 22:32:08 UTC 
I was responding about /developer to Louis's comment in this issue.

Closing.
Comment 13 michael.bemmer 2003-03-24 08:22:11 UTC 
As agreed by Louis I will close these resolved fixed support-owned issues now.
If you have trouble with that, please re-open the issue.

For technical reasons we have to move the issue to another subcomponent tan 'www'.
Sorry for bothering you with this generated notification message. There is no
need for any action from yor side.
