Add VM (entity) name to alarms in VMware template

      VMWare alarms monitoring is creating events with summary like for example this:

      nhyazavspv-vcteit01VMware: Virtual machine CPU usage

      From this summary is visible, which VCenter is related, but it is not visible which VM is affected.

      The raw data, which is collected by "Get Alarms" item even no collecting VM name, instead of that in value system_name is "alarm.HostConnectionStateAlarm"

      It's very inconvenient because when the problem is created it's not possible to determine which VM is affected. 

      So it will be really helpful if this item will collect also affected VM name which then may be includes in trigger summary or even notification. 

      Looks like this is because the template does not even use the field entity_name from vCenter.
