jca001 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I purchased the ELK Module and ELK M1 a while back with plans to install it, but have not gotten around to doing it yet. I had a need to reboot my ISY and noticed it delays during the reboot for about 4 minutes doing Get ELK Topology. During the delay it does not run any of the programs that are marked to run at Startup. This is causing a problem because one of them is a program that updates several State Variables with the current Date and Time from System Variables so they can be tested by other programs. Is there a way to keep make ISY not get the ELK Topology at reboot until I have implemented it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michel Kohanim Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 @jca001, Does Get Topology take as long even when not rebooting? With kind regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jca001 Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 @Michel KohanimI was mislead by what was showing up in the Event Viewer. When my ISY reboots I have a program called Boot_Check that is set to run a boot time. It calls a couple of other programs like the one that sets some State Variables for date and time from the values of the System Variables. Then it waits for 2 minute and sends me an email and text. The wait is because I assume the ISY will only reboot if there is a power failure and this gives time for all my network equipment to get on-line. When I did not receive a text after the 2 minute I accessed my ISY and brought up the Event Viewer and the last message was Get ELK Topology and then about minute later other messages started being shown. So I assumed it was waiting for the ELK Topology to complete. My Boot_Check starts a program called Tic_Toc that updates the same State Variable I stated above every 5 seconds and it was not running. Well it was running but not going betern the THEN and ELS every 5 seconds. It seems the Query all has the highest priority and other programs do run until it completes. I have noticed this when it runs at 03:01 each night that my Tic_Toc program gets delayed. So I have disabled the Query at boot and added the Query All as the last thing in my Boot_Check program so other things get a chance to get started first.

Michel Kohanim Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 @jca001, Yes, indeed query all has highest priority because programs may depend on the status of devices. With kind regards, Michel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
