Cutting service output information in ‘Status Information’ c

We observed that ‘Status Information’ under Service detail values get cut after a particular length.
Is there any way to increase the character size for this column?

There is a limit (default is 4KB) to the plugin output allowed. Noted at the bottom of this document: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... inapi.html
You can change it to a higher value if you want, also shown in the document above.

Great.

FYI this works well for plugins that get executed via check_by_ssh as there is no limit on the returned size. However check results received by check_nrpe have a 1K limit. The next official release of nrpe will allow you to increase this limit.
