Note for myself: this requires synchronizing currently triggered Alarm states from the vCenter

I'm also missing this information in the alarms of the vmhosts. A message like "_ [CRITICAL] Overall VMware status is 'red'" is probably not sufficient or helpful for informing an on-duty-team at the weekend.
Maybe I'm wrong but it looks like the message is almost present in the "full_message"-column of the alarm_history-table:
| Alarm 'Host CPU usage' on examplehost.com changed from Yellow to Red
