Would like to hear an answer also.

First of all I did not attack anyone or try to put anyone down (and didn't say I or we can not figure it out)so don't be an a..hole.

It seems sad. Year 2022 we can travel to Moon but to turn lights on and get feedback we need to almost be programmers.?

OOF! I was pulling my hair out. I was doing some changes to my network last night so I fought it was on my end. Still out over here 8:47AM Easter Time.

@IT SolutionsDid you try putting the lock that does report into a location of a lock that does not?

@lilyoyo1 said: The problem with forums is that so many people comment on different things, issues can get lost in the process. UDI can't read every post to find whats what (though they chime in regularly). A ticket is the best way to get a bug fixed long term. I thought this thread was not about reporting bugs. HAHA.

My bad. I thought threads like this were about finding bugs.

@Michel Kohanim Any chance you could comment on that. Thanks

Hello. Upgraded from 5.0.16C to 5.3.0 it looked good at first. Not sure if it is the same BUG that @asbril reported with control vs status. I have few programs that rely on Yale deadbolts control in "IF" portion of the program. Unfortunately deadbolts are not available if I choose "control". Went back to 5.0.16C and everything is working fine. Is it a bug or could I do something to fix it? Thanks.

So having PLM connected or unplugged?

I do have more insteon then Zwave devices so would not like to change a firmware just to include Zwave device. Yes Polisy does not help. Currently running Unraid server 24-7 with Debian VM running polyglot so at present have no need for Polisy.

Still running v5.0.16.C afraid of upgrading for this reason. I still have few outlets and door locks Gen3 and it would be PITA to bring it close to ISY. ISY should have taken approach to this like VERA3. Wireless WiFi and ability to run without Insteon Modem so you could bring ISY close to Zwave device. Much easier then bringing device to ISY.

@simplextechSounds like a painful process. Luckily you have development platform so you don't have to do it on your production system. I don't think I can be of any help. I'm not very proficient with linux but if you need anything don't hesitate to ask.

Myself I only have Ecobee and MagicHome nodeservers running. I've tried HarmonyHub but it could not discover my hub so I've uninstalled it.

HA runs as a docker on Unraid server just updated yesterday to 0.103.4 and 0.103 run fine also

My ISY is v.5.0.16B , Polyglot is v2.2.1 and Home Assistant v.0.103.4

My Home Assistant starts and runs fine. Maybe because my HA is not on same PI with my nodeserver?

Oops as I was typing you basically said the same thing. Lol

I find this comment quite strange since just like I've mentioned before I have nodervers in my ISY and Home Assistant show all (but insteon thermostats) all device and interacts with ISY fine. Unless I'm not reading something correctly.

Yes they pretty much are. All my devices are controlled (mastered) by ISY - almost all. I use ISY for almost all my automation and Home Assistant only for "simple" web user interface. I have a Unraid server running 24-7 with Home Assistant, NodeRed, MQTT, Plex and some other apps running as dockers and couple VM's and that part works real well. Asus router runs openVPN server. I have a PI running Polyglot v.2 but there are some things I can't get it to work (like HarmonyHub node - it works fine on HA). So yes my requirements are met. If only everything worked 100%, some days it feels like I'm still running X10 , but that's probably for another topic to trouble shoot my system. Sorry I'm just babbling and it has nothing to do with Op's thread. I just wanted to say that op can have ISY and Home Assistant as front end coexisting no problem. P.S Sorry for bad grammar. English is my second language.

With good user interface I would take this :" (I want string support and dynamic updating rather than restarting and having to re-upload/process profiles)" for given. Unless I behave like a robot or the house can read my mind or you have house full of motion, heat, pressure etc sensors that perfectly work together I find always use for manually turning things On and Off and here Home Assistant is way better (just my opinion) then ISY (I know, I know ISY is a hardware - but hardware is useless without software). Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to bash ISY, been using it for years (Nov.2013) With a mix of Insteon, Zwave, Ecobee and "user error" thinks don't always work as programmed therefore my need for manual input.

Isn't that what basically ISY is- customised PI ?

Recently I've been playing with Home Assistant . Its been working great for me ( and I do have a nodesever running). I love the way I can customise the front end of HA and response time is very fast. I use openVPN to access my home network when on the road and Home assistant works great with it. I also use Agave (full access) it works pretty well either with ISY Portal or "local" when using openVPN. So far only downside to HA is that it does not recognise insteon thermostats that I use in garage that is 100ft away from house. I wish ISY would use front end interface like Home Assistant. Hate using "ISY Web Access", on the "Scenes" tab you can not tell if they are on or off and HAD doesn't even display scenes. I love the ISY but it user interface looks like is stuck in the 80's.

I don't know about 4.7.3 I've been on 5.x.x for last ... what like 3 year. Ever since 5.x.x came out.

I successfully use Aeotec Zwave switch with my submerged 240v well pump. Not only I can turn it on or off but also can monitor power draw.
