Moving from ISY to ISY on Polisy
@Michel Kohanim with some PG2 nodeservers not yet available on PG3, what is the plan if a nodeservers is missing from PG3 when the backup is migrated over from PG2?
-
PG3 on Polisy
Bob, What about upgrading PG3 from a previous version? Will there be an announcement somewhere within PG3 that an upgrade is available? Would you use sudo pkg update PG3?
-
Possible Z-Wave board failure?
Have you checked the error log?

ISY on Polisy v5.2.0 Is Now Available
Bob, Out of curiosity, if PG3 is able to manage more than 1 ISY, would one of them be able to be at a remote location and connect using ddns address?

ISY on Polisy v5.2.0 Is Now Available
After getting PG3 installed on Polisy and connecting it to ISY on Polisy, I installed a Nodeserver. Apparently, the Admin Console on Polisy is missing the ability to scroll down the page. If the Nodeserver is displaying more information than will fit in the window, you can not see the remaining items without making the Admin Console window larger.

ISY on Polisy v5.2.0 Is Now Available
I upgraded to v5.2.0 by using the automatic upgrade from within ISY on Polisy. After waiting and trying the Launcher, my Polisy was not found automatically and when adding the IP manually, using the correct port. I ssh in and ran sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade followed by sudo service isy restart. I waited and tried the launcher and it found Polisy, but my UUID was all 0. I tried a reboot which had no impact. I tried sudo service isy restart again and this time my Polisy (and ISY) were found. Even though the version was listed as 5.2.0, when I logged in by selecting LAN, I received the following error: I tried both a reboot and sudo service isy restart, but still get the above message and after clicking ok, ISY on Polisy closes. I tried sudo service isy restart one more time and now I get two instances of Polisy in the Launcher window. Only one will allow me to log in through LAN, both will allow me to login by CLOUD. I tried deleting the entry that is not completely working, but Delete is greyed out. After going in via LAN on the working entry a few times, I find both entries are now working, but I still can not delete one.

ISY 994i needing constant reboot
Looks like you're also having dns issues. Have you verified your dns settings?

Have you checked the error log to see if there are any errors shown?

ISY 5.1.1 Is Now Available
Are you saying that adding nodeservers to ISY on Polisy is not possible while the ISY 994 is still in production and using nodeservers?
-
ISY 5.1.1 Is Now Available
Yes, I can access ISY on Polisy, that is not the issue. I am trying to add ISY on Polisy to Polyglot to associate nodeservers with ISY on Polisy. Michel's post above indicated to use the ISY address in a browser. That isn't working for me. As you indicated above, I tried using the Launcher (cleared Java cache), but still can not associate Polyglot for the new instance of ISY on Polisy. There is still something I am not understanding.
-
ISY 5.1.1 Is Now Available
If I use the IP address of Polisy, I connect to Polyglot nodeserver associated with my ISY 994, not ISY on Polisy. I see no way to associate the two.

ISY 5.1.1 Is Now Available
@Michel Kohanim Hi Michel, When I try https://xxx.xxx.x.xxx using the IP address of my ISY, I get "This site can not be reached" error.
-
ISY 5.1.1 Is Now Available
I completed upgrading Polisy, restarted, connected a USB Insteon PLM, enabled Insteon service, and completed the Portal licensing and approval process. I can access ISY on Polisy, but I don't see how to access Polyglot. What step did I miss?
-
Adding Z-wave and upgrading to 5.x
One other thing worth mentioning is that sometime in the future ISY will be replaced by Polisy. Currently, the Insteon software for Polisy is being tested and according to a recent UD post a zwave build should be out by end of month. My point being, if you are not currently using zwave, you might want to wait a little longer to add zwave.
-
Nodeserver Migration to ISY on Polisy
One other consideration is those of us running multiple ISY/Polisy, either has a production/development set up or at a main/vacation home. It's not bad at a nodeserver cost of $5, however if you are using a higher priced nodeserver or a subscription based one, it could get pricey. Just something else to think about when pricing the nodeservers, not a complaint about having to pay for them.

Program details no longer working
Your firmware and UI need to match and yours does not. You need to update your UI. First, clear your Java cache and then go to the upgrade post for your firmware and download the ISY Launcher UI. Follow the instructions in the upgrade post.

i messed something up now polisy is useless
The instructions are in the wiki, here is what it says about factory resetting: Factory Reset Press and hold the button till all LEDs start blinking then release. This action resets the credentials, removes all configurations from Polyglot/Polisy, and resets networking. The link for the full guide is here: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=Polisy:User_Guide I would suggest you read through it before doing anything. There is a note that says if the factory reset doesn't work you need to update Polisy.

@Javi, since the change to the favorite I am experiencing an issue getting the icons to open up. I'd doesn't matter if I am local or not. They don't seem to respond to being touched. Any thoughts?

Admin Console - System Busy
I am not sure but that option might only be available on the "Pro" version. Check which ISY you have in the help - about menu.

Error messages
First, are you using the ISY Launcher to access the admin console? It is available on the firmware download pages and is the preferred method. Your firmware version and UI must match, the Launcher will do that automatically. Clear your Java cache before downloading the Launcher. Also, look at this page for dealing with antivirus software: https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=Configure_Firewall_Software Make sure you follow directions in the wiki to set up DHCP.
