1 Hi mirror-admins,
2
3 We'd like to apologize for the burst of extra traffic in /distfiles.

5 The master distfiles box unexpected rebooted, and did not mount the
6 distfiles LV on reboot; worse, rsync continued to serve with the
7 directory being empty, and that caused many mirrors to delete their
8 /distfiles content.

10 Admins: Are your mirrors running the --max-delete option in their sync
11 cronjobs for the distfiles & releases? If you're not, would you consider
12 it?
