I couldn't come up with any better ideas, so here is a bash
implementation of the traceroute method. Seems to work:
#!/bin/bash
A="ec2-75-101-201-203.compute-1.amazonaws.com" # node in us-east-1a
B="ec2-75-101-228-202.compute-1.amazonaws.com" # node in us-east-1b
C="ec2-174-129-138-71.compute-1.amazonaws.com" # node in us-east-1c
for mirror in $A $B $C; do
HOPS="`tracepath -n $mirror | grep hops | awk '{ print $5 }'`"
# checking for an int is not pretty in bash
[ "$HOPS" -gt 0 ] 2>&- && echo "$HOPS $mirror"
done | sort -n | head -n 1 | awk '{ print $2 }'
The host that ran this command was on us-east-1c, and selected $C
correctly each time.
