The issue was that the entire command line was sent and the '&' which should be a command separator was instead being interpreted as another argument. This caused the argument parser to try and interpret '&' as the filename as in this special syntax: "cf-agent <policy-file>" and since there is more text after '&' in the existing cfruncommand value the "Too many arguments" error is caused.
