Team, I am trying to upload 21GB tar package to nexus.

1. Is there any size limit on nexus repos?
2. How to enable size limit on artifact size ?
3. What is additional configuration required to upload 21GB file to nexus from Jenkins?

Thanks,  
Venkat

Nexus does not restrict the size of uploads. If you are running into problems uploading a large artifact it’s usually due to settings on a proxy server that restricts the size of a request.
