    When I run this command, my IPV6 address is truncated, I cannot determine how the bleep I get Powershell to not truncate the data =>

     

    PS C:\> get-clusterresource IP1 | get-clusterparameter Address

Object                        Name                          Value                         Type
------                        ----                          -----                         ----
IP1                           Address                       <strong>2001:4898:e0:3132:bdc:aaa8...</strong> String

    Thanks!

    There are several ways, so that maybe powershell can go through the whole list and figure out the max width needed:

    | ft -autosize

    | fl

    | more

    $a = command; $a

    Make a custom object (PSTypeName = 'MyObject') and format.ps1xml file for it. 

    Make the window wider

    Usually the widest column is put at the end.

    I found this command helpful as well.

    $FormatEnumerationLimit = -1

    Beware the Backstab!
