ISY Reboot

[hart2hart]

Is there a way to use NodeLink to send a reboot to the ISY.  I recall there was with xxxLink programs but cant locate it here.

 

Thanks

On the NodeLink webpage there is.  It is on the devices page.  This is obviously a manual operation.

There was no way in the old programs.  I could add this as a relay command to the next version.

My current use case is it to program a reboot of ISY on time change nights to get it back in sync. If it’s easy to do, would be great. Now I have a email sent to make me manually reboot. May all be moot if US legislature puts us on DST permanently.

I can’t help but think that other use cases exist. Also, think I recalled it was a command from ISY to reboot computer that xxxLink was running on that I remember.

Is move to net 5 next big change?

Not really, it's just a re-run of the install script, same as had to be done when it moved to Net Core 3.  

The part that's more breaking is the node def files.  I've changed a number of them to allow for dynamic unit changes (no separate C and F devices).  That may require the device to be reinstalled in the ISY.  Going to talk to UDI before it happens to see if there's a clean way to avoid this.

Will that mean reworking programs?

I spoke with Chris, looks like there will be a way to avoid re-doing anything in the ISY, just need to send a rest command from your browser which I'll identify once I roll out the new version.

Thanks for everything over the years. NodeLink and it’s xxxlinks before it are a huge part of my home automation.
