What is the size limit for the Malware Analysis sample file that can be uploaded?

Products

• Content Analysis Software - CA

Issue/Introduction

Try to upload a Malware sample file under Malware Analysis > Overview > Add Files or Malware Analysis > Submit > Upload Samples.
Received an error like "ext. 7111" when trying to upload a sample file that is more than 100 MB in size.
The status of the upload is not 'Upload completed', it just shows "0% completed" until it gets blank.

1. Ext. 7111
2. 0% completed status did not change until it gets blank.

Environment

Using CASMA appliance.

Cause

This is an expected behavior because the default size limit is 100 MB.

Resolution

There is an option to change this value on the CLI:

(config-ma-settings)#rapi max_sample_size <value>

where <value> is the maximum size of a submitted file, between 0 an 100. By default is 100.
