Increase allowed global script length

XMLWordPrintable

      I was surprised to find I could only enter 255 chars into a global script. I would like to see this increased to be significantly larger (at least multi-thousand).

      My use case:
      Powershell command that downloads a script from my local GitLab and then runs it. Here is the command - 276 chars in length. 

      powershell.exe -noprofile -noninteractive -WindowStyle Hidden -Command "& {Invoke-RestMethod -Headers @{'Private-Token'='AAAAAAAA-AAAAAAAAAAA'} -Uri http://gitlab.apps.aaaaaaa.cc/api/v4/projects/1016/repository/files/get_CPU_top_procs.ps1/raw?ref=master | Invoke-Expression}"
      

      I realize there are some abbreviations I can use in Powershell to shorten it, but 255 still seems to be a very small limit for a script, especially a Powershell one (since Zabbix doesn't provide a way to enter just the Powershell commands themselves and then launch them in a Powershell instance on your behalf.)

       

      I found this forum post where a user modified this value for his installation, however, another user posted some questions that made me hesitate from implementing this.
