What is the maximum number of characters allowed in an APM script message output? We're seeing many of the alert messages being truncated in the APM Component Details display.
Example:
Computer IP = 172.16.5.53 - Disk volume = 'W:', Non-system drive MB free space critical minimum threshold (39000 MB) exceeded. Percent Free Space = 1%, Free Space: 29.361 GB, Used Space = 1970.644 GB, Capacity = 2000.005 GB, Compressed = False, File System = NTFS;
is truncated to:
Computer IP = 172.16.5.53 - Disk volume = 'W:', Non-system drive MB free space critical minimum threshold (39000 MB) exceeded. Percent Free Space = 1%, Free Space: 29.361 GB, Used Space = 1970.644 GB, Capacity = 2000.005 GB, Compressed = False, File
We need the capablility to include a lot of information in the alerts so that the people who are responding to them have a good picture of the situation before they ever log on to the server. Also, the alerts will be auto-generating trouble tickets, and the tickets need to include complete information.
When we test a monitor, we see the full text as expected. Truncation only seems to be a problem in the APM Component Details display and in the alert action message (e.g. ticketing and sending E-mail).

A related question: Can carriage return / line feeds be incorporated into the message output?
Example:
WScript.Echo "Message: The quick brown fox" & vbCrLf & "jumps over the lazy dog."
should produce:
The quick brown fox
jumps over the lazy dog.
From our tests, it appears that this is not supported. Only the first line is displayed.

Are there workarounds for these issues?
