I have a production server and a test server. I'm setting up the test server to be used for pre-production release testing. When I restored the gateway on the test server (from the production server), the alarms that are configured on the UDTs did not restore and are missing. Is there a way to restore or import these alarms?
Hello @Daniel_Wade,
A tag export will include all tag data, including configured alarms, and should be included if you were to import the tags in question to the new gateway. That being said, when dealing with UDT's, it is necessary to import the UDT definition before importing the tag instances themselves, as many tag properties are dependent on their parent UDT definition. I'll include some of our documentation about tag exports below:

I hope this helps!
Hello Austin,
Thanks for the reply. One thing I forgot to detail in my original question was that the alarms I have configured on the UDT are coming from MQTT via Cirrus Link. As you know, there is currently no way to get these alarms to come over the MQTT or export/import them in the designer. I've put a request in the Ignition system to add the ability to export/import alarms, scripting, etc. so that they can be replicated without having to re-type everything.
