Builder status - Are all machines checking in? Have NFS shares mount?
Back-ups - Check all automated back ups
- Ireland, New Zealand - /var/koji-backup/
  - should contain backups of "/etc" and a postgresql dump, run on a daily basis at midnight.
  - Ireland should also have a full copy of "/mnt/koji"
Check available disk space on all relevant machines - Hongkong, Ireland and New Zealand.

Repo Closure
- Run 'depcheck' to ensure no broken dependencies that can be resolved.
  - Fix any issues

    mash -o /mnt/koji/mash/beta/f13-arm-2011-05-06 f13-arm

Sign Packages
- Temporarily done with 'rpm --addsign'. This is done on Hong Kong using Paul's account. Pass phrase is the old root password. You will need to enter the pass phrase about five times as the packages are signed.

    ls *.rpm | xargs rpm --addsign

After packages are signed, you must run createrepo again to include the new metadata.
