Client has a requirement to allow alarms to come through to UIM for events
but would like a dynamic way to update the alarm so as to have it excluded from
going to a service desk implementation.
 

UIM 9.0 and earlier
NAS 9.0 and earlier

Setup a pre-processing rule to math the incoming alarm you want to review

update the robot list with the names of the robots that should be checked for and matched on.
update the profile name with the text you want to match in the alarm.

When both of these condition are met the user_tag2 will be updated with the text
