We are trying to deploy a large engineering application, which is over 25 GB in size, with nearly 90,000 files.
SCCM apparently cannot handle it.
The DataTransferServices log shows
<![LOG[XML parsing error at line 1 char 1: Operation aborted: MaxXMLSize constraint violated.
And
Non-recoverable error retrieving manifest (0x80004005).
1) Can anyone advise what is imposing the limit here?
2) I presume it is the number of files?
3) Is it SCCM agent/BITS/IIS or what?
4) I presume it is the file manifest xml size, so its an SCCM agent issue?
5) How can I confirm this limit? Can this limit be increased?
We cannot zip this Application as some client machines have insufficient disk space to deal with the multiple copies of massive files that would be the result (zip, extracted zip, MSI's cached, app installed etc. etc.).
6) Is it possible to install an Application directly from source without caching? I believe not and we would need to use legacy package for this?
Thanks for any answers/advice!
