A method and system for integrating alarms is provided. An external alarm is received at a process control system and includes an external tag. An internal alarm that is associated with the external alarm is determined based on a map. An internal tag associated with the external tag is also determined based on the map. The process control system generates the internal alarm which includes the internal tag and is based on the external alarm. A method and system for generating alarm and tag relations is also provided. At least one external tag associated with an external system is selected. At least one internal tag associated with a process control system related to the external tags is determined. At least one entry in a map is generated to indicate a relation between at least one of the external tags and at least one of the internal tags. At least one external alarm associated with the external system is selected and at least one internal alarm related to the external alarms is determined. At least one entry is generated in the map to indicate a relation between at least one of the external alarms and at least one of the internal alarms.

What is claimed is: 1. A method for integrating internal alarms generated by a process control system and external alarms generated by external equipment that is not a part of the process control system comprising: receiving, at the process control system, an external alarm, the external alarm including an external tag identifying an origin of the external alarm; pre-determining and mapping an internal alarm associated with the external alarm; pre-determining an internal tag associated with the external tag based on the mapping; and generating, at the process control system, the internal alarm when the external alarm is received. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein receiving the external alarm comprises retrieving the external alarm from a log file. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein receiving the external alarm comprises receiving the external alarm over a communications link. 4. The method according to claim 1, wherein determining the internal alarm comprises: comparing the external alarm to at least one entry associated with the mapping; determining a match between the external alarm and a selected one of the entries; and selecting the internal alarm based on the selected-one of the entries. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein determining the internal tag comprises: comparing the external tag to at least one entry associated with the mapping; determining a match between the external alarm and a selected one of the entries; and selecting the internal tag based on the selected one of the entries. 6. The method according to claim 1 and further comprising: determining a priority associated with the internal alarm based on the external alarm; displaying the internal alarm at the process control system; and handling, by an operator, the internal alarm at the process control system. 7. The method according to claim 6 and further comprising updating the external alarm at the external system based on the handling of the related internal alarm at the process control system. 8. A system for integrating internal alarms generated by a process control system and external alarms generated by external equipment that is not a part of the process control system comprising: software encoded on a computer readable medium and operable to: receive, at the process control system, an external alarm, the external alarm including an external tag identifying an origin of the external alarm; pre-determine and map an internal alarm associated with the external alarm; pre-determine an internal tag associated with the external tag based on the map; and generate, at the process control system, the internal alarm when the external alarm is received. 9. The system according to claim 8, wherein receiving the external alarm comprises retrieving the external alarm from a log file. 10. The system according to claim 8, wherein receiving the external alarm comprises receiving the external alarm over a communications link. 11. The system according to claim 8, wherein determining the internal alarm comprises the software being further operable to: compare the external alarm to at least one entry in the map; determine a match between the external alarm and a selected one of the entries; and select the internal alarm based on the selected one of the entries. 12. The system according to claim 8, wherein determining the internal tag comprises the software being further operable to: compare the external tag to at least one entry in the map; determine a match between the external alarm and a selected one of the entries; and select the internal tag based on the selected one of the entries. 13. The system according to claim 8 and further comprising the software being further operable to: determine a priority associated with the internal alarm based on the external alarm; display the internal alarm at the process control system; and handle, by an operator, the internal alarm at the process control system. 14. The system according to claim 13 and further comprising the software being further operable to update the external alarm at the external system based on the handling of the related internal alarm at the process control system. 15. A system for integrating internal alarms generated by a process control system and external alarms generated by external equipment that is not a part of the process control system comprising: means for receiving, at the process control system, an external alarm, the external alarm including an external tag identifying an origin of the external alarm; means for pre-determining and mapping an internal alarm associated with the external alarm; means for pre-determining an internal tag associated with the external tag based on the mapping; and means for generating, at the process control system, the internal alarm when the external alarm is received. 16. A method for generating alarm and tag relations comprising: selecting at least one external tag associated with an external system; determining at least one internal tag related to the external tags, the internal tag being associated with a process control system; generating at least one entry in a map indicating a relation between at least one of the external tags and at least one of the internal tags; selecting at least one external alarm associated with the external system; determining at least one internal alarm related to the external alarms, the internal alarm being associated with the process control system; and generating at least one entry in the map indicating a relation between at least one of the external alarms and at least one of the internal alarms. 17. The method according to claim 16, wherein the external tags are selected based on predetermined criteria. 18. The method according to claim 17, wherein the predetermined criteria comprises external tags to be monitored by the process control system. 19. The method according to claim 16, wherein determining the internal tags related to the external tags comprises: determining a match between at least one of the external tags and at least one of the internal tags; and selecting the internal tags that are matched to the external tags. 20.
