Bumbershoot Posted January 9, 2021 Posted January 9, 2021 @btreinders, apologies if you aren't running any Polyglot nodeservers, but if you are, the ISY-Inventory nodeserver would have saved you some hassle. See screenshot. 4
btreinders Posted January 23, 2021 Author Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) Thanks Bumbershoot! Not sure how I missed this reply. So, I created a ticket and the only things they can suggest is swap out SD card (done), send all the logs when it happens (done) and update to the latest version 5.3.1 (Done, previously I was on 5.3.0). They were not able to figure out why all the programs become enabled and it is still doing it with all the changes. Another suggestion they gave was to create a program that would disable all the programs that need to be. I did that but once they all become enabled the ISY is so overwhelmed I can't get it to run the disable program and I still have to hard reset and restore. So to combat that issue I put all of my programs into a folder just under the top level with only a few programs left top level that are not in that folder. I created a state variable in a program top level that would get set if that program becomes enabled and used that variable as a condition on the folder where all the other programs are not located. That way if all programs become enabled it will stop executing and I can run the disable programs program and be back up and running much quicker than a hard reset and restore. Now I am fighting an issue where that folder randomly goes red but the variable in the condition has not changed. I do use this method for another folder inside this folder and have never experienced this issue. Edited January 23, 2021 by btreinders
jfai Posted January 23, 2021 Posted January 23, 2021 I've stopped relying on program disabling for normal operations ever since that feature bit me a few years ago. I only use it during program development if I'm trying out different variants of programs. The intermittent enabling of programs happens rarely, but when it happens, it's a big pain and drain on time.
btreinders Posted January 28, 2021 Author Posted January 28, 2021 I never did find a fix for the folder condition issue so I have since added the state variable to all If conditions of all disabled programs. Big pain to do and I will have to remember that any future disabled programs with an If condition will need this addition. I even tried two variables for the If condition for the folder but it still would stop execution without both variables changing to true.
Michel Kohanim Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 @btreinders, Weren't you working with @Chris Jahn on this? With kind regards, Michel
btreinders Posted January 29, 2021 Author Posted January 29, 2021 Yes, but he didn't have an answer for the folder issue or the all programs become enabled issue. He did give me the idea for the program to disable all programs that need to be so I can recover quicker.
