I created my alarm journal profile with no issues and the database seems to work properly as well:

The alarm table does not have any issues either. Is something I am missing to configure the alarm journal?

In the `name` parameter of the Alarm Journal Table, have you entered 'Alarms\_journal' ?  
I believe it defaults to 'Journal', but it should be the name of the configured alarm journal profile.
