I just tried this on 8.1.5 and couldn’t replicate the issue. I suspect there’s something else going on here – you might want to contact support so they can help you out.

[edit] I just realized you’re in Perspective. I was able to replicate this and I’ll make a ticket. 😳

I Created a button, with script

> system.alarm.acknowledge

But here is another problem. Some alarm can't be acknowledged. And their eventid doesn't exist in Alarm.db.

In order to solve it, I tried :

disable the Use Store and Forward,stop ignition server, delete alarm\_\*\*\*\* file in data folder , clear Alarm.db, then start ignition server .

And some new alarm appeared, which can't be acknowledged.

To alleviate the problem, I just delete the tag's alarm configuration.

Maybe I missed something, could you help me to find out what happened?
