QUESTION:

Knowledge management functionality questions:

1. How many versions are you allowed to upload into Changepoint?
2. Is there a limit on how large a document can be?
3. Is there a limit on capacity of data being uploaded into CP?
4. Are there issue with Changepoint performance once the capacity is reached over a certain limit.


ANSWER:

1. The limit on the number of versions allowed for knowledge management items is set in system administration for the knowledge category. If "Number of versions retained" is set or is zero, it is unlimited.

2. The default maximum document size is 40 MB set on the global workgroup and in the web.config.

Example:

<httpRuntime executionTimeout="900" maxRequestLength="40960" minFreeThreads="8" minLocalRequestFreeThreads="4" useFullyQualifiedRedirectUrl="true" />
maxRequestLength="40960" defines the file attachment size limitation to 40960 Kbytes.

 

3. There is no limitation for the actual data being uploaded to Changepoint

4. There could be potential performance issue, depending on what volume is planned for attachments and knowledge items. The database size should be taken into consideration in terms of growth for the Knowledge Management attachments. As a recommendation 10GB, set auto-growth on the database by 10%
