I am trying to add new fields to the Events_details which takes as many characters as I give in the range of thousands.. Is there any limit on those fields??

Your problem is that the Zenoss daemon that processes incoming events (zenpython for Windows events, zentrap for SNMP events, zensyslog for syslog events) will already have truncated the message field to 4096 characters, if that is what you are hoping to parse out into new event_details fields?
The event_summary table in the zenoss_zep database defines a field called details_json and specifies it as "MEDIUMTEXT", which I understand to be a string with a maximum length of 16,777,215 characters. However, this has to hold ALL the event_details, in JSON format so it doesn't really help you with how many characters any individual event_detail can be.
Cheers,
Jane

Well I am trying to parse them to the events_details section(In a new field defined by me) due to the message field truncated to 4096.
As the maximum characters that can be hold by "details_json" is high, so I think I can define an additional key within that to hold the data.(maybe in 2k characters or so).
Thanks
