The EPICS Alarm Handler (alh) has served as the basis for a reliable alarm system for BESSY II as well as other facilities and laboratories operated by HZB. To preempt software obsolescence and enable a centralized architecture for other Alarm Handlers running throughout HZB, the alarm system is being migrated to the alarm-service developed within the Control System Studio/Phoebus ecosystem. To facilitate operation of the Alarm Handler, while evaluating the new system, tools were developed to automate creation of the Phoebus alarm-service configuration files in the control systems’ build process. Additionally, tools and configurations were devised to mirror the old system’s key features in the new one. This contribution presents the tools developed and the infrastructure deployed to use the Phoebus alarm-service at HZB.
