I used the following command to get alarms information:
getpars -U* -C* -B* -mCMPNM:%12s -mTYPE:%6s -mALMOPT:%8x

This doesn't give the alarms priorities.
Do you know how to get the alarms priorities using get=
part

The terminology is confusing.
ALMOPT will tell you what type of alarm is configured
CRIT will tell you the priority (1 to 5, 0 means no alarms)
PRTYPE will tell you the what type of alarm has the highest priority (1 to
9, 0 means no alarms)

If you are proficient with working with bit-mapped packed long integer
values, there is a wealth of information that can be found in ALMSTA
It took me a while to figure it out (with help from list members), but I
now understand is well and have automated reports that extract alarm
statuses, priorities, acknowledge statuses, etc from ALMSTA.
