The only time the files are copied is when you first create a new instance. After that, the instances are completely separate from one another and you would need to manually copy files that you would want to have replicated from one place to the other.

In the case of the Alert information, the file you want is the Sierra4.config file from the main instance. Note that this has all the global settings for the system, so copying it may make other changes that you do not want.

In general, refer to Step #5 at the following link for what information is stored in which files:
