Check also this output:
./check_mssql_health --server 'sqlserer\PROD' --port 12345--username 'gateway\nagiossql' --password 'XXXXXXXXX' --commit --mode connection-time
OK - 0.01 seconds to connect as gateway\nagiossql | 'connection_time'=0.01;1;5;;
What I see to nagios web interface is this:

Is nagios interpreting "\n" to the webinterface for some reason?
As @scottwilkerson wrote, when you added | tee -a /tmp/TEST1 you can see exactly what the output from the command is (including any \n).
And as you wrote, the only output in TEST1 (and TEST2) where OK - hence it looks like the problem lies in the check_mssql_health script.
