Not as long as you have a test database as well. I have a separate db for my test gateway, and use a DNS name in the connection, so I don't have to change my DB connections when restoring a backup. You can see more on that [here](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/ignition-architecture-question-dev-to-prod/70182/10)

You may want to change your device connections to simulated ones as well, such as [Programmable Device Simulator - Ignition User Manual 8.1 - Ignition Documentation (inductiveautomation.com)](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Programmable+Device+Simulator)
