Over the last couple of weeks we've put together a mirror checking tool and a cgi that will verify the currency of the mirrorlist.
Just wondering if this is more of a single point of failure for updates?e.g last weekend chunks of IP space inhabited by *.redhat.com were unroutable from here, causing me problems with yum/yumex.
Admittedly I probably exacerbated the issue by doing a "yum clean all" to try to solve the issue, which probably threw away all clues that yum-plugin-fastestmirror might have had to work around the issue, and meaning that I couldn't even drop back to using "yum -C"
