Ian:

At our site, the only solution that we have come up with is to have people give 
us (the Admins) the files and we move them to our server (using SFTP) and then 
set up a batch load of the item(s) into DSpace.  It is not efficient, but it 
does save on User frustration in uploading huge files.

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Uploading large files to Dspace

Hi,

We want to allow users to upload large files to our DSpace repository - maybe 
10 GB or more. Although I can up the max size in the dspace.cfg, it takes a 
long time.

Has anyone found a quicker way, maybe such as zipping up files and then 
unzipping them once uploaded to Dspace?

Please let me know.

Thanks

Ian
