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.
