In order to pull dumps from C3SL and 'muni.cz', which do not offer 'latest' directories, I need to make some assumptions. Please let me know if I got all of the following right: [...] b) Failed runs. A dump file could be the output of a failed process, but 'dumpruninfo.txt' will say so, like this:
name:imagelinkstable; status:failed; updated:2013-01-02 12:47:37
Yes. But as there are more stati than just “failed” and “done” (markers for waiting, in-progress, etc IIRC), I'd rather check for status “done” (instead of dropping only “failed” jobs) to get all the jobs that passed without problems.
[ Mirror specific questions ]
On http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Dumps/Mirror_status the mirrors are marked as not being run by Wikimedia. So if no one provides the information you requested in time, it might well be that no one knows :-) If you need information on how the mirrors are set up, I guess it's best to nicely ask the mirror providers directly.
- FTP
[...] With FTP, I can access C3SL, but not 'muni.cz' or 'your.org':
Use anonymous ftp access.
