Hotfix - Increased file size support for Update UI artifact and 5.0.x.x Upgrade to 6.0.0.0

Issue Description:

 This document helps with resolution of two issues:

          1. SRM vAPP upgrade from versions less than 5.0.2.2 to version 5.1.1.0 will fail to upload the Update-UI.zip file with error "An unknown error encountered while uploading the file. It may have reached the maximum file size allowed. Please check the server logs for more details."

          2. It was observed that SRM vAPP upgrade from any of the SRM/SMR 5.0.x.x versions (5.0.0.0, 5.0.1.0, 5.0.2.0, 5.0.2.1, 5.0.2.2) is getting stuck due to the communication error observed between webservice-gateway service which is preventing the upgrade process to continue further.
