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?

Is Dave Warren on this list?  If no response, does anyone have an old email with his contact info so I can ask him how his rsync's are setup?

I guess I can add logic to our hourly script to check sha1 values on the latest
tar.gz to catch rsync'ing issues.
