Closed as program error.
Error description
Currently, using the document list coach view, a user is able to upload document content in a file of any file size, without restriction. The administrator needs the ability to specify a maximum size for uploads, because a user may deplete resources (such as disk space and network throughput) by uploading extremely large files or by uploading files that are not required for the use cases defined. This specification should be a configurable option. The problem that can seen is that uploading or downloading ECM files cause a Coach to use a lot of memory and may require a long time to complete the query -- in one case taking 10 to 20 seconds vs. 2 to 5 seconds.

Local fix
Problem summary
The administrator needs to be able to restrict the size of document content uploads.
Problem conclusion
To address this problem, a new server configuration option has been added, in which the server administrator can provide a maximum file upload size for the document list coach view. For example, to enable this functionality and limit document uploads to 1 MB, the administrator can edit 100Custom.xml with the following XML markup. Notice that file size must be specified in bytes (i.e. 1048576 bytes = 1MB): <server> <document-attachment-max-file-size-upload>1048576</document-atta chment-max-file-size-upload> </server> For information on updating the 100Custom.xml file, refer to http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/dmndhelp/v8r5m0/topic/com.ibm. wbpm.admin.doc/topics/changing_server_props.html. A fix is available for IBM BPM V8.0.1.3 and 8.5.0.1. On Fix Central (http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral), search for JR50346: 1.
