So, what seemed to be happening to me was that some sort of configuration file was still trying to populate information from hue. I ended up trying several things including deleting node servers, directories, and deleting pg3 at one point and reinstalling. I even did a factory reset of the Polisy. None of that worked as every time I would try to add hue after all that, it would pick up previous config file of some sort. It seemed polisy (pg2 and pg3) were loading some previous config based on IP address. What I did was changed the static IP address on the hue that I was using to a new address and then updated the router to reflect IP address reservation. After that, the hub was found and loaded all nodes as expected in PG3 using the regular install instructions. I hope this helps your situation. Jasson

@StangManD Can you post what your hue node server configuration screen looks like in ISY. Mine is not populating automatically so I may need to add it manually, but not sure of the proper inputs into that screen. Jasson

I am running on a Polisy.

I have had things working with the unamanaged slot showing up in PG3 previously. It now seems I have some config files that are corrupted or causing issues. I've tried uninstalling PG3, PG2, etc. to no avail. I've factory reset Polisy. The root of the issue is around a Hue hub NS in PG2. The Hue hub was factory reset and when trying to add it back, it keeps pulling up old username of hub and wont add nodes like normal. It's like it has settings saved in an old config file on Polisy. I've been trying to find a way to completely delete all config files from PG2, PG3, general Polisy, etc. so I can start over. I have been unable to do this. At this point I am wanted to just completely delete all polisy settings and start over. When I did a facory reset, it still had some of my saved settings that showed back up. I'm at a loss. Jasson

Thank you for the information. If anyone knows how to do that with PG2, it would be much appreciated! Jasson

Does that delete just the isy package or does that delete everything?

Can anyone tell me how to completely delete polisy and start from scratch? I’ve got a few strange things going on that I have been unable to resolve. Seems I’m somehow getting old config files to keep loading into PG2 and pg3 even when I delete them. It’s causing problems when I’m trying to configure PG2/pg3 and node servers. Wanting to just delete everything and do a clean install. I would then restore isy from a backup and start PG2 and PG3 from fresh install. I did a factory reset and it seems it still had some items saved from some kind of config file. Thank you, Jasson

I have pg3 up and running but it is not showing my isy portal (unmanaged) node server. The portal node server does show up under my pg2 dashboard and in my isy node server configuration (slot1). Any suggestions to get this node server to show up under pg3?

Anyone know if you can do a backup of PG2 from a raspberry pi and restore said backup onto the Polisy? I am wanting to do this so I don’t have to reload and setup my node servers manually. Thanks, Jasson Lamb

Any recommendation for zwave devices that would work in a 4 way switch setup? Had a switchlinc that died in that setup where I had 3 switchlincs controlling a single light. Looking at replacing all three of those switches and keeping the two working as spares for others I have. Looking for devices that would communicate with each other (a local association similar to Insteon) and also could be seen by IoP through zooz zwave stick. jasson

I have a polisy running isy and hue Node server on pg2. After migration from ISY, I have an issue where my hue lights in isy scenes will seem to quit working at times. For example, i have an Insteon switchlinc that turns on an isy scene that includes a couple of lights on Insteon devices plus a a hue room scene (that has 3 hue lights in it). When I turn on the switchlinc, only the non hue lights turn on. The hue lights do continue to work using my echo or the hue app. This is issue comes and goes. It seems the isy loses connection to the hue bridge. I have another switchlinc with a similar setup and the same thing happens. When the problem is happening at one switchlinc it is also happening at the other. Any ideas or suggestions as to what might be going on? Update: with a little more troubleshooting, I found a couple more things…if I want into ISY dashboard and the main tab if I tried to turn on or off any hue hue lights (via Node server connection), they would not respond. I went into PG2 and did a restart polyglot, and now they work. Somehow, polyglot (I only have hue Node server on polyglot) is losing its connection with ISY on a regular basis. jasson

Thank you for the info. Does anyone happen to know the latest version of polyglot V2? I've managed to get all other updates but seems the V2 has not updated in some time. I'm at version 2.2.13.

I am trying to understand the update process for Polisy with polygot 2/3 and ISY. I am not sure about the order process in updating the various parts. What order do I update in? I.E. Do I update Polisy first, then Polgyot 2 and 3 next , followed by any Node server updates, and lastly ISY version? I have not been able to find info that details this. Thanks in advance.

Yes the dashboard at bottom does point to ISY version 5.3.0 on Polisy (was 5.3.4 under 994) for both PG2 and PG3. Interestingly, my PG3 no longer has the banner, just PG2. I'm not even sure what I did to get PG3 to drop that banner, but it did! That is interesting. My nodeservers appear to be working properly and all migration from 994 to Polisy went smoothly. It may just be some sort of bug at the moment as everything does appear to work. I use the Philips Hue nodeserver on PG2 and I can confirm Hue lights respond instantly to scenes changes issued through the ISY on Polisy. There was always a slight lag with PG2 on Polisy and ISY on 994 combo. Jasson

Thanks for the info. I did as you suggested and it actually updated the isy version to 5.3 which is the Polisy ISY version, however, I am still getting the red banner about ISY not being discovered on your network. Not sure what I have going on. The Hue nodes do seem to be working. Not sure if I should ignore this red banner or if there is something further I need to address. Jasson
