Description
Kapacitor's TCP event handler (https://docs.influxdata.com/kapacitor/v1.5/event_handlers/tcp/) by default sends a very big JSON object. Occasionally this JSON object becomes longer than 1460 bytes and the message is truncated when received at the TCP log server.
Not sure how this can be solved though.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with Kapacitor's TCP event handler documentation at https://docs.influxdata.com/kapacitor/v1.5/event_handlers/tcp/ and trace the handler implementation that sends the JSON event. Reproduce the problem with an event whose JSON exceeds 1460 bytes, then verify that the complete message reaches the TCP log server without truncation.
