WinRM enforces a job memory quota (documented here <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee309367(v=vs.85).aspx>) that you'll probably need to adjust upward for a heavyweight installer like Jira. Also, if you're running Powershell 3.0, there's a hotfix that fixes that setting on some OSs, though I'd recommend just upgrading to PS4 or 5 instead of messing with the hotfix.
