I'm going to keep a close eye on it for the next few days manually, and then decide if adding automated validation is worthwhile or not.

Could you (whoever is responsible) add me back to the mirrors list?

I would guess you caught it mid copy and it arose because of the caching.
Just a guess but glad we know what's going on.

Howdy. I'm on this list.

Okay, so this is a bit odd, it looks like the file 1827131.tar.gz was
actually modified by rsync many hours after the initial write:

Date: Sun, 18 Mar 2018 02:36:30 -0600 (MDT)
.d..t...... ./
  >f+++++++++ 1827131.tar.gz
  >f+++++++++ 1827131.tar.gz.asc
  >f+++++++++ 1827131.tar.gz.sha1

My cron runs every 5 minutes (with up to 220 seconds variability). I see
"MIRROR.CHECK" being updated at 03:18, 04:21, 05:23, 06:18, etc)
confirming rsync was running.


1827131.tar.gz is modified just over 18 hours later:

Date: Sun, 18 Mar 2018 20:47:39 -0600 (MDT)
  >f.st...... 1827131.tar.gz
  >f..t...... 1827131.tar.gz.asc
  >f.st...... 1827131.tar.gz.sha1

I was under the impression that the *.tar.gz* files were immutable, but
looking through my rsync logs, this is definitely not the case, I see
the files being created and later updated nearly daily (although not
every day, March 8th I see 1826189.tar.gz was created and never
modified), the only reference to it is here:

8 Mar 2018 19:46:40 -0700 (MST)
.d..t...... ./
  >f+++++++++ 1826189.tar.gz
  >f+++++++++ 1826189.tar.gz.asc
  >f+++++++++ 1826189.tar.gz.sha1


Due to my belief in the immutable nature of these files, the files were
being cached without verifying whether the on-disk source had changed.
For the moment, I will cache less aggressively which should resolve the
problem.


Can anyone confirm why the files are being modified? Is this
intentional/expected?

--- Comment #2 from Dave Jones <da...@apache.org> ---
I guess I can add logic to our hourly script to check sha1 values on
the latest
tar.gz to catch rsync'ing issues.
