I use EISY for all my Insteon lighting, nothing comes close for functionality. I have a couple of Zooz switches on the EISY as well. However, I use HA for all my utility needs like zigbee sensors and smart plugs. I find EISY support very limited and/or clunky compared to HA for these devices.

Same?

Not sure about Apple devices but UDI has said in the past the target for the webui is end of year 2026. So maybe they had this in mind with their timeline. I actually mentioned to Michel a couple of years ago that they should develop a webui to gain better adoption of their devices and plus java always seems to be a problem area for new users. I was told, UDI is a small company etc.

Good plan, thanks!

Good idea, I'll watch it. Currently I'm at 135. Thanks!

Thanks, I'm still not sure, it seems like OS/IOX doesn't have an open socket to take the admin console requests for a Program Save, for example. Makes sense to me why would a reboot clear up the problem for another month. I don't have a huge number of Programs but I do have external programs that use REST to do regular update on variables in the EISY. And PG3 has an DSC Alarm node that updates the EISY. Nothing crazy in my mind. Maybe I'm missing something.

Thanks, it happens on a Save function like creating a Program. I saw the thread. I seem to remember setting the -Xmx512m to 1024 previously years ago but the setting is missing. I'll try that again. Firmware is up to date. 6.05. I'll see how it goes and submit a ticket if it happens again.

Does anyone know how to get rid of these socket timeouts? I do know what a socket is but not sure how to address them on the eisy. They popup about once a month and total bork a program save and other functions. Thanks!

Curious @Michel Kohanim what is causing the ISY Default smtp failures on the ISY? Even when firmware is updated. It seems so straight forward.

My experience as well, EISY and Polisy work fine with Gmail but the ISY doesn't work at all. The ISY Default smtp setting does work fine for me, first try actually.

Very smooth for me, surprisingly given everything that was touched.

My ISY has been on Gmail since 2012/2013, likewise never a problem,. Back in the days of LeeG etc.

Nothing changes for your Gmail account. The change affects use of their smtp servers that you use to move email. It's well known that certain people abuse smtp to send spam and other garbage. Stronger authentication tries to ensure that the right people are using their smtp servers. ISY supports Basic authentication for their smtp servers, Google no longer supports Basic authentication for reason describe above. They say you have to use their procedure to generate an approved strong password (16 character) if you want to continue to use Basic authentication.. BI now supports Oauth which allows you to use your usual Google username and password for authentication to their smtp servers.

Under Settings / Email Servers / Authenticate

That is a good question @Geddy . Something must trigger it. Google began phasing out Basic Authentication which is a simple password over TLS in 2022 with a final cutoff date of March 2025. I changed my ISY to their approved password for less secure Apps in 2022. Since then it hasn't missed a beat. My Blue Iris now requires Oauth authentication, that happened with an app version update last year I think. I think I had to do both an increase in timeout to 3000 and the Google less secure App password procedure.
