Not able to upload big file on ESXi host datastore

We manage vSphere ESXi 6.7 host using web client.

When we upload any file to datastore using web client, it shows msg "File upload to path '[datastore1]SW_DVD9_Win_Pro_Ent_Edu_N_10_1803_64BIT_English.ISO' was initiated from 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:62.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/62.0@192.168.x.x' and completed with status 'True'". But on datastore it is not showing uploaded file on datastore.

We tried uploading file with few MBs which can upload to datastore successfully and showing in datastore path. But when we upload file size in GBs it is not showing.

Note : We have free space available on datastore.

Please help me to resolve the issue if anybody have faced the same earlier.

Hi,

How big is the file size (seems a W2k16)?

Which browser are you using ? Firefox I guess, could you try with Chrome?

I remember that there is a limit in IE for the file size (4 GB if I am not mistaken)
