Some questions about syncing Maven repositories between two sites were recently asked on GetSatisfaction.com.

"We will be moving data centers and want to setup another Maven2 repo that is managed with Nexus OSS. We want both repositories to be online and read\writeable until we migrate all our environments to the new site. I have a few questions:

  2. What is the best method for keeping the two repos in sync? We want to minimize network bandwidth usage."

The video below answers these questions, and offers multiple solutions:
