Mirror Owners,

AlmaLinux 9.3 is slated to release on Monday, November 13, 2023. The updates will begin syncing out to mirrors today in the next few hours.  This is our first release since adding a second rsync mirror into our network so syncs should be a bit faster as we now have 60Gbps of total capacity (up from 10) for mirrors to pull from as well as geo-DNS steering for rsync.repo.almalinux.org so the West Coast US and APAC mirrors should get a significantly better route to an rsync mirror now.

There are quite a few mirrors in the "expired" status in the mirrorlist at https://mirrors.almalinux.org meaning syncs are either broken, or not running frequently enough.  This is a good time to check if your mirror is in that list and correct any issues to be ready for the 9.3 release.

If you need help fixing your expired or otherwise out of sync mirror we are happy to help via chat, email, or GitHub.

Thank you for your contribution to AlmaLinux by hosting a mirror.  A healthy network of mirrors is integral to the continued success of AlmaLinux.
