Hi,

I'm sorry to be bugging you all, but I was just wondering whether this has been looked at yet?

Thanks!

Hi,

I'm still interesting in upgrading to a Tier 1 mirror if possible, and was just wondering whether this has been looked at yet?

Thanks again!

Hi,

Your mirror seems to be having issues at the moment https://archlinux.org/mirrors/mirror.5i.fi/. Generally we'd prefer mirrors with a longer presence and consistent stability to become a T1 mirror and 3 months is not a great amount of time to confirm that. We are also discussing reworking T1 requirements which might change in the future https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki_talk:NewMirrors#Rework_Tier_model/requirements

Hi,

Thank you for taking your time to look at my mirror. I wasn't unfortunately able to fix the issue any earlier, as I was asleep when it occurred. The issue ended up being network related within my virtualization environment. I'm going to be working on improving my fault resiliency and uptime. When should I try to apply again? 6 months, a year from now on?

Thank you!

Hi, thanks for fixing the issue, seems there are no problems any more. I'll leave this bug report open and we can get back to it in around 6 months.
