You have three options:

  • Delete the attachments from the issues
  • Compress them - ask your users to compress before they attach, and think of some way to download, delete, compress and re-upload somehow (as you'll need to adjust the data that links attachments with issues)
  • Move the attachments on to a compressed file system (attachments are not sensitive to types of file system, Jira is happy as long as it can read and write the data)
