Description

The reports line is defined as follows (see https://www.rudder-project.org/foswiki/Development/ReportsInTechniques):

@@Policy@@Type@@RuleId@@DirectiveId@@VersionId@@Component@@Key@@ExecutionTimeStamp##NodeId@#HumanReadableMessage

The regex in the rsyslog config file for the Policy field is:

[ a-zA-Z0-9\-]+?

This is rather limited for a "human readable" name. We need at least to add underscore because many things in the CFEngine world use underscores.
