For MSP 4 the maximimum package size that can be uploaded into the library is 100 MB. The OS update package on the ET1 WAN unit is 115 MB. What are the config files (both in MSP and in IIS, and other services) that need to be changed to allow this size file to be uploaded into MSP?

Steve; You may or may not be able to change the configuation of IIS to be able to reliably load a file of that size.  It depends on a number of factors.  First, is the limit fixed in IIS as to the size of file that can be uploded.  Second is how long the Package will take to upload AND place into SQL which is highly dependent on the performance of the hardware being used.  If you relax the IIS limit, that doesn't mean the upload of the Package won't take so long that the Web UI times out, and that is NOT modifiable. It is much simpler to simply copy the APF file into the PackagesToInstall folder and let it be processed in the background by MSP.  That bypasses the issues related to uploading huge files via the Web UI, both size-based and time-based limits.  Of course, that also requires access to the Server Console of the PC on which MSP is installed, hence wouldn't be possible to non-priviledged users.
