New PLM still restoring 24 hours later

I didnt check how many links I had because the PLM died but I started restoring the new PLM at around 1pm yesterday and its still going. No errors and its going through the process. I have the log window open on level 3 and its churring along fine and quickly. But man 24 hours now and still going. Wow.

I can relate but 24 HR's seems a little out of place considering you have all the latest Insteon gear. I could understand if you had generation one devices which were not ics2.

 

But 24 hours later wow . . .

Its acting like its working and all the hops are 3s and 2s and its not stopping or freezing up. Watching the event log cruising through too at L3. I counted about 87 devices total. Edited by huddadudda

The only battery powered devices I've had time out were original RemoteLincs--until I moved the most stubborn ones to the detached garage which, fortunately, had a few dual-band devices. Did you back-up the ISY prior to replacing the PLM?

Yup then put the new PLM in, turned on the ISY, logged in and then did a restore. Seems like its working fine just taking forever.

So should I do a ctrl alt del and close it or just let it keep going? I do have 30 scenes, with at least six that that all the lights in the house and then change the levels as the scenes progress. IE sunset to evening to relaxing then all off. Each scene has all my inside switches and devices in them. Maybe I have more links than I think?

The ISY should remember where it was at. It does not depend on the computer, although rebooting may help. You may need to power-cycle the ISY.

So I did a control alt del on the admin console and then factory reset the PLM. I loaded up the admin console again and now its cycling through and not stopping. Its been like this for an hour. Should I factory reset the ISY? This hasn't been a good week! argh.

I wouldn't go that far at this point but have experienced the same thing you're going through now. In my case I simply killed the power to the ISY Series Controller and waited about 30 seconds.

 

Once that was done I powered up the controller and did a restore from a good known back up. After that long process completed I hard reset the PLM and went through the whole PLM restore process.

 

I absolutely disabled the battery write so it didn't slow down the PLM restore process. Given the number of devices you have this should take about 4-8 hours and this includes doing the single battery write one at a time.

 

Don't even think about doing the auto write update option because you're going to lose more hair on your balding head and raise your stress level five bars.

 

Go smoke a blunt and kick back a few cold ones . . .

What you did was to start again. My suggestion was to power-cycle the ISY.

Thats what I did and now its cycling through again and I can't cancel it. Here is a snippet of the log.

Device 22.35.79 is repeatedly sending a Fast Off, over and over again.  Only the first message in a normal Fast Off message sequence is sent.  The event trace shows no outbound commands.  Suggest pulling Set button on device to shut it down.

I airgapped that switch then the console crashed. Now I cant login with my username and password. I tried to reset the password via the pin in the front and power cycling to no avail. This week has just turned into pure doo doo. Any thoughts? Tried my normal login and admin/admin neither work.

From the wiki...

 

Reset Userid/Password to admin/admin

  1. Use a sharp object to push in the Reset Button till the RX, TX, Mem, Error lights start blinking (every second)
  2. Hold for 5 seconds till the RX, TX, Mem, Error lights turn on/off consecutively (RX -> Tx -> Mem -> Error)
  3. Release

You can also use Telnet to reset password...
