I am preparing to migrate my ISY with node servers on a Polisy to my new eisy. I am unclear on what is going to happen once I start the migration. Questions are probably basic but my 76 year old brain needs some guidance. I am currently running PG2 on a Polisy for a couple of node servers. I assume that I don’t try to backup these node servers and install on the eisy. Once ISY is migrated, I then install new PG3 node servers (Plug-Ins?) on the eisy? When installing new Node Server/Plug-In, do I use the slot I used for PG2 previously shown in my ISY? Will I have to re-point my network resources in my eisy programs for the newly installed Notification node server on PG3? Another question, once the migration is complete, is the SD card needed anymore and can it be removed? Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Techman Thank you. I was hesitant to update since my version was so old and things did work. Had to uninstall my old java version and installed new version. Clicked all three boxes and things now work. Now I can focus on the eisy. Thanks so much

I received my eisy in the mail yesterday. But before I begin to migrate, I thought I would ask this question first. I have been receiving this message for at least two years when trying to sign into my ISY. I also have a Polisy but only use it for PG2 node servers. Never migrated my ISY to it. So with that configuration, I get this message each time I try to log into the ISY. In fact I get it twice before I am able to load the ISY. Been an inconvenience but never took the time to troubleshoot. So before I begin to migrate, is there something I should do to solve this first. Or should I just disconnect the ISY and Polisy and begin the migration. Thank you. Note: I have not upgraded my JAVA for a long time. Stuff works and you forget about it.

Geddy Thank you so much for your post. I will be ordering my EISY in a couple of weeks so trying to get up to speed with the migration process. I have pretty much been off-line for a couple of years and not doing much with the ISY. Just letting it do its thing. My brother, who is much younger than I am, has his EISY and will be installing it in a couple of weeks. I am hoping that he can get me started if I run into problems. Thanks again for your post.

Thank you for your quick response. You confirmed my suspicions.

I finally have time to migrate to the Eisy. Life sometimes gets in the way. Wonder if anyone can give me some advice. I did not migrate my ISY to the Polisy many years ago. I still have Polyglot 2 on it and a few node servers I am not paying any subscription. I want to move to the EISY, pay my subscription fees for the node servers I will be using, especially the Tag and Push servers. Looking for how I should begin the migration with both the ISY and Polisy on my network. Thank you for any ideas you might have.

I am now up and running with the Portal. Thanks so much for the quick response to the ticket I submitted yesterday. Don't realize how much you miss something until it is gone. Great job.

Same issue this morning. Keeping fingers crossed

I also obtained a new API from Weatherbit using a new email address and I am now able to get data again. I believe the old free plan allowed for 500 calls per day but don't hold me to this. The new plan allows 50 calls per day. I did contact support last week, but most likely because I am on the free plan, I did not get a response.

Michel Thank you so much for helping me solve the issue I had with the Admin Console continuing to ask for my credentials and then reloading my programs. This was happening about every minute or so. You helped me troubleshoot my issue and, with your ideas and support, I was able to solve my problem. For others who may experience similar issues, I had a short power outage in June and since then I had the issue with the credentials. I had been using a surge protector to energize my ISY along with my Router. I suspected a failing ISY Power Supply at first and replaced it with one purchased from UDI. That did not solve the problem but once I removed the ISY and put it on a separate circuit. Problem solved!!! I cannot thank Michel enough for his patience and his help. I know his plate is full and I do not like to send in a trouble ticket unless I am at my wits end. In my previous life I had responsibility for Customer Service for an Electric Utility. His customer service should be written up in a book for other companies to emulate. You just don't see this level of Customer Service anymore!! Thanks again Michel.

@Athlon Just completed a successful test with this format xxx-xxx-xxxx@vtext.com. Very much appreciate your help. I was not looking forward to going the pushover route even though in the long run that would be better.

@Athlon Thank you so much for your research. I should have done that first before posting but to be honest, i did not think of doing that. I am in the process of testing with the individual and will respond back with the results. @hart2hart I went to pushover because the reliability was so bad with critical things in my home. However, my problem is I am working with a non-technical person some miles away. She has been using ATT and that was working for her. I am hoping we can get by with Athlon's suggestion because of the difficulty in getting her changed to something else.

Does anyone know if there is the option to send a text message to someone that that has spectrum cellular. I could not find spectrum in the drop down and wondering if there is someone that partners with them for text messages. If there is not an option, I will see if I can get them to sign up for push messages. Thank you

@Geddy After 2 hours of chasing my tail, I finally got this figured out thanks to you. I went back and created a new gmail account and set up two step verification. Once I did that, I was able to get the option to add the ISY. The take away here, and maybe obvious for others, is you need the two step verification set up before you get the app password screen to add the ISY and generate the code. I was at first concerned about setting up the two step verification for my original gmail account since I use that account for other things beside the ISY. I did not want to figure out how to use the two step each time I accessed my gmail on an older apple device. Maybe this is not a concern, but I thought I would just be safe. Thanks again for your help.
