Well that did not go as planned. I have restored my backup from Polisy to Eisy plugged in the PLM to eisy and booted up the Eisy. It looks like all the Insteon devices have restored to Eisy and Eisy can talk to them Zwave is another story. The Eisy is doing a query and trying to restore the Zwave devices but they are naming them as ZW not ZY devices. I removed one window sensor from the system and readded it and it is also added back in as a ZW not ZY. Just FYI there is no longer an option to restore or backup Zwave when I look in Zwave on Admin Consol... I was able to run my Node servers on Eisy by doing the portal migration then reinstalling the node servers on Eisy. I have updated my ticket to UD and awaiting a reply.

Opened a ticket with UD Support and Michel responded today. I am posting my data from the ticket as well as Michel's response. See @bpwwer response above for PG3x migration to Eisy. Terry Lightner reported 2 days ago I am going to be moving from Polisy 5.7.0 FreeBSD 13.1 with internal Zmatter board and PG3x 3.2.4. I have read the Eisy Users guide but it refers to migration to the eisy for Zwave. I am confused. I have completed a backup of my Polisy including a Zwave backup. I will be moving the Polisy internal Zmatter board to the USB enclosure for us on the Eisy.. When I get ready to complete the move I assume I restore my backup from Polisy to Eisy, power down Eisy and connect to my existing PLM reboot Eisy. At this time I assume insteon and Zwave should be operational. Is that a good assumption? Do I simply do a restore of my PG3x node servers to Eisy since they are already PG3x from Polisy? Can I add the Eisy to the PG3x dashboard ahead of time? Then I will complete the Portal migration to the Eisy which will also transfer the Node server licenses correct? Michel Kohanim replied 6 hours ago Hi Terry, Yes. But, once you restore your backup, you will also need to make sure both INSTEON and Z-Wave checkboxes are checked in Admin Console/Configuration tab. Please do not try to add node servers from polisy to eisy ahead of time. They are all going to point locally to eisy. So, once done migrating IoX, then migrate PG3x. I will be doing the move to Eisy on Wednesday or Thursday this weel and will update results when complete.

@bpwwer Bob Thank you...

@Geddy Thank you for the response. I thought the migration process for LOX and Zmatter were going from 994 500 zwave to polisy/eisy Zmatter.. Since I am moving the Zmatter board to the Eisy all the data should be there already. Sometimes I am too logical so that may not be correct..

Received my new Eisy and have it connected to my network and upgraded to 5.7.0 with FreeBSD at 13.2. I am going to be moving from Polisy 5.7.0 FreeBSD 13.1 with internal Zmatter board and PG3x 3.2.4. I have completed a backup of my Polisy including a Zwave backup. I will be moving the Polisy internal Zmatter board to the EISY USB enclosure. When I get ready to complete the move I assume I restore my backup from Polisy to Eisy, power down Eisy and connect to my existing PLM reboot Eisy. At this time I assume insteon and Zwave should be operational. Is that a good assumption? Do I simply do a restore of my PG3x node servers to Eisy since they are already PG3x from Polisy? Can I add the Eisy to the PG3x dashboard ahead of time? Then I will complete the Portal migration to the Eisy which will also transfer the Node server licenses correct? As always thank you for your help....

Did you just do an upgrade? Give us a little more information please. What did you do just before this error?

Is your Eisy using the Zmatter/Zwave dongle? If not what are you using for Zwave?

Yes you do lose PG2 ...

@saclarkdocThis link will give you a lot of help with UD Mobile. https://wiki.universal-devices.com/index.php?title=UD_Mobile

@oskrypuch Sorry guess I did not clarify, the Load does not keep the Theme settings. Wish it did..

@Andy P My laptop does that every Sunday. It resets the theme data back to default also. So like you I just do a load on my saved file and all is good...

If I understand is correctly you can load your POLISY backup to Eisy and then UD will have to move the Node server licenses to the Eisy. But I could be wrong. Maybe @bpwwer can clarify..

If you right click on the program you want to copy and select copy it will add it to the list of programs with the letters "copy" added to the name.. There is no paste needed.

No argument that the Eisy will be supported longer than the POLISY. It is newer..

@JTsao The Polisy DOES NOT have an expiration date.... @Michel Kohanim stated earlier this week in a post that POLISY will be supported until AT LEAST January 2027. I too had no issues moving my POLISY from PG3 to PG3x..

Not sure on Sledge locks but there has to be a button to wake it up. I have Kwikset Locks and they have an inclusion button.

It is the same board whether it is in the USB enclosure or not. You can either use it as USB or internal to POLISY.

@Jimbo.Automates Did not think you could but thought I would ask. Thank you for all you do here and with the Notification NS it is an awesome tool.

@Jimbo.Automates The Emails/Notifications/Customized Content list can be sorted by selection the names header, is there anyway to sort it in the dropdown List when creating the message? Thank you

EISY is out of stock but from an email I received yesterday they should be back in stock by the end of the month.. For education on the EISY read through the WIKIs and and search these forums. If you only have insteon then EISY is your only choice to replace.. The 994 is usually rock solid and dies when either the power supply or SD card go bad. I would try replacing the power supply first.

@mmb Yes when EISY was introduced UDI offered a $75.00 you needed to purchase your Polisy in 2019 or 2020 to qualify but I never saw EOL announced. If Michel responds we will have our answer. From UDI https://www.universal-devices.com/product/eisy-home/ Discounts? Yes, in the form of trade-in and the offer expires on 01/31/2023: ISY994 purchased in 2019 or later: $36.00 Polisy2019 | 2020: $452021: $602022: $75 Polisy PRO2019 | 2020: $602021: $752022: $90

@Michel Kohanim Can you set the record straight once and for all on the life of Polisy??? I have asked @mmbwhere this was documented but as of today he has not produced that documentation. If us Polisy owners only have 3 years before EOL then I would like to start planning now to move to Eisy...

@bpwwer Thank you for the updates. This is perfect...

@bpwwer Backup and running again.. Thank you..
