    Private mirror is available at http://mirror.inclusivedesign.ca/fedora

    It was added to Fedora's MirrorManager and will be used automatically by hosts on the 205.211.168.0/24 (OCAD) and 205.211.169.0/24 (IDRC) networks. No need for reconfiguration of clients.

    I'm working on making the update script a bit more robust before closing this ticket.

    Sent an email to rit.edu asking our mirror to be added to their ACL so we can mirror from a faster server.

    Disk space used on h-0005 (`mirror` user):

    /home/mirror/public_html/fedora:

79G	releases/26
82G	releases/27
23G	updates/26
22G	updates/27

    Mirror script committed to ops repo.

    I should add a comment about why I chose h-0005 for this. This mirror server can grow a lot in the near future (>500GB) and using a QCOW2 virtual disk (like our VMs do) didn't seem like a good option, for backup/performance reasons. That made me focus on our physical servers. Out of all the h-* servers, only h-0005 is public so that settled it.
