Pablo,

I'm not aware of that capability, however our clients don't necessarilly have 
the most up to date version of arcsight either. The standard practice they 
have become accustomed to is to modify a rather generic connector that reads 
syslog. Obviously your limited to the length of a single syslog record but 
most relevant information can be crammed in. 

I'll look more into a connector for unified output, but even if it exists I 
doubt our customers will upgrade.
