I agree, I just had to do a "emergency" upgrade of ftp.dk.FreeBSD.org when it's former 65 GB RAID5 thingy ran out of space during the 4.4-RC* run ... If we can decide that a tier1 mirror is required to have, say 100 GB available, then it's up to the release engineer to ensure that no more than 98 GB is on ftp-master, thus ensuring that the mirrors won't run out of space. /Jesper -- Jesper Skriver, jesper(at)skriver(dot)dk - CCIE #5456 Work: Network manager @ AS3292 (Tele Danmark DataNetworks) Private: FreeBSD committer @ AS2109 (A much smaller network ;-) One Unix to rule them all, One Resolver to find them, One IP to bring them all and in the zone to bind them.
