Thank you, if I understand this correctly, to have the system
download only the system updates for my system I can simply use<br>
<br>
rsync -vaz --delete isc.pcbsd.org::ftp/system-updates/9.\* .<br>
<br>
How can I then have the systems download the updates from a mirror
and the PBI from a different one ?<br>
or, if I sync only the PBIs that I need (using the same structure)
will the AppCafe/System update work with the same mirror ?<br>
<br>
Thank you for your help<br>

I have been wanting to setup an FTP mirror with just the PBIs that we
use (they are only 5 or 6) as well as the system updates, but haven't
had time to dig into the documentation and figure out a way to do it.
We have a FreeBSD server (not PCBSD) and we use that one as main
server/proxy/file share/intranet/backup/monitoring system/etc... If
it is possible to add the PBIs and system updates to that one would be
great.

You just setup a cron script for the "rsync" command, and it'll
keep your mirror nice and up 2 date :)<br>

Looking forward to update my over 40 installations of 9.0 via the system update (none uses ZFS).

<pre wrap="">Fabry,
If you have any spare / testing system, it may be worth while to give ZFS a whirl on it. The performance is as good, if not better, than UFS now IMHO, and the other features it offers really make it an attractive option :)
BTW, do you run your own local mirror at the shop? With that many systems, it may be worth-while to setup a FTP mirror locally, so you can update them all without destroying your internet uplink ;)
