The file structure of each server is roughly:
People setting up new FTP/ANONCVS mirrors
will be interested in the following disk space usage estimates for
what is maintained at
ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/.
The current policy requires mirrors listed on this page to provide at
least the last two releases in binary form (currently 3.8 and 3.9),
as well as the OpenSSH/, OpenNTPD/, OpenBGPD/,
patches/ and tools/ directories.
Note that in the above, "release" means all files under the specific
directory (e.g. 3.9/).
This includes all architecture subdirectories and the complete packages
subdirectory, with packages for all application architectures.
Depending on the disk space available, mirrors may provide more contents, such
as snapshots, older releases, current source tree, etc.
The current disk space usage on the master ftp site is as follows:
current
pub/OpenBSD/3.5 15.0GB (OpenBSD 3.5 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.6 17.6GB (OpenBSD 3.6 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.7 17.8GB (OpenBSD 3.7 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.8 20.0GB (OpenBSD 3.8 release)
pub/OpenBSD/3.9 22.4GB (OpenBSD 3.9 release)
pub/OpenBSD/snapshots 17.2GB (current snapshots, normally >= the last
distribution in size)
pub/OpenBSD/src .5GB (ftpable src tree, checked out from anoncvs
nightly. You should avoid using an ftp mirror
to get this. It's better to just update it
yourself with a checkout from a nearby anoncvs
server.)
Hence, a mirror requires about 60GB of disk space at least, for snapshots
and the last two releases.
Depending on which old releases you serve additionally, you can waste
still more disk space.
Note that the master ftp site also provides the following directory, that
mirrors should not need to provide:
pub/OpenBSD/distfiles 4.7GB (distfiles used by the ports subsystem makefiles. You probably should not mirror these unless you want them for other reasons yourself. The ports makefiles will only look at ftp.openbsd.org and ftp.usa.openbsd.org by default for these.)
If you add a new FTP, HTTP, AFS or RSYNC mirror site, please contact www@openbsd.org.
