Anybody? Any ideas? I'm about to revert back to the 994, as I can't solve this on my own. Help... please.

I feel like I must be missing a basic step. Have been a happy ISY994i user for years. Yesterday finally got around to trying to migrate to Polisy. Followed all the steps, restored my devices from backup, etc. In the process I switched away from the PLM on the old 994 to the supported wireless dongle that I had laying around. Did the PLM restore, etc. The Insteon devices came through OK. The Z-wave devices did not. I have the S2 700 stick. Tried to do the "Restore Z-Wave", get the "No Zmatter Z-wave dongle is connected to the ISY". Not sure if this should be happening. However, as I only have 2-3 Z-Wave devices, I'm not too worried yet. The bigger issue is that the Polisy seems to be doing the "System Busy - do not power off/unplug" thing for well over an hour most of the times I connect. It goes to 100% and starts again, MANY times... but does complete eventually. The biggest concern is that it seems on any reboot (some of which seem random), the admin username reverts back to admin/admin and the "Insteon support" box gets unchecked. Yes, I've done the "save" and "reboot IoX" after checking it. I've also done the reboot under "Polisy System Settings". Other settings like location and Z-Wave support seem to be preserved. I'm on Firmware 5.5.2. Thanks in advance for any guidance.

I see this and lots of other info on migrating from ISY994i to Polisy. What I can't seem to find is whether it's possible (or useful) to ADD Polisy to an existing ISY994 environment. I have a mostly Insteon house (dozens of devices) with a few (3-4) Z-Wave devices. My ISY is working well, other than when upgrading firmware the Z devices are a pain. I seem to recall something about failing them over to another controller to save their configs. Would the Polisy + ISY environment allow that? I own both, but Polisy is still in the box. Also, on a related note, if the above is NOT a good idea, what does Polisy give me above the ISY if all I have are lights, motion and leak sensors (no weather checking, or other external stuff). Thanks for any advice.
