Hi,

We are using webMethods 6.5 server.
I am using services available in OpenSSH package and able to transfer a zip file of size around 8-10 MB to a SFTP server. But, my requirement is to transfer a zip file of size around 250 MB. Can anyone let me know what is the capability of
the service, pub.openssh:sftp service? Is ther any other way to handle the requirement?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks !!

250MB is huge file than expected and some how you have to send chunks of files and transfer is the best bet to avoid session timeouts/connection reset etc…

Thanks RMG!!

Can you please let me know what is the max size of a file which can be transferred either through FTP or SFTP?

From a protocol perspective, I do not believe there is a limit.

What Rob said is correct…but when trying transfer via wM prefer send in smaller chunks not as 250MB size to avoid socket/connection resets.
