Publisher review:Mirmon helps administrators in keeping an eye on the mirror sites. Mirmon helps administrators in keeping an eye on the mirror sites. In a concise graphic format, mirmon shows each site's status history of the last two weeks. It is easy to spot stale or dead mirrors.
Mirmon's actions and report are directed by a config file. There are many configuration parameters, but most have acceptable defaults. Only a few project specific items need to be specified.
Once configured, mirmon can be run by cron every hour. Mirror sites are probed at certain (user defined) intervals (default every 4 hours).
Sites that are (temporarily) unreachable are probed more often (by default hourly) until a probe is successful. The state file has a simple format and can be used for other administrative purposes (mailing admins of stale mirrors, directing users to fresh mirrors, etc).
