systemctl output is truncated

A need to grep the output for this command:



systemctl | grep failed


The problem is that it does not show complete units:



systemd-...-clean.service loaded failed failed        Cleanup of Temporary Directories
systemd-...-setup.service loaded failed failed Recreate Volatile Files and Directories
tcsd.service loaded failed failed LSB: Init script for TCSD
cups.socket loaded failed failed CUPS Printing Service Sockets


Your can see the units show like: systemd-...es-clean.timer
for systemd-tmpfiles-clean.service



I tried with a file:



systemctl --failed > file


Or cat:



systemctl --failed | cat


But the problem is the same.
I need to understand why that happens and how fix it.

  • Just for the future, man systemctl or man somethingelse solves most of these problems ;)

This is not related to pipes, is systemctl's behavior. Use the --full switch to get full names:




--full
Do not ellipsize unit names and truncate unit descriptions in the
output of list-units and list-jobs.
