I have 2 installations I have migrated from 994i to eisy.  One of the installations still has the ISY Portal NS and the other does not.  Both installation seem to working fine.  Is the ISY Portal Node Server still required?

It was never "required".  I use it for Locative/geofence.

Thank you - I haven't had a chance to play with the Geofencing yet.  Will check it out.

 

I'm not positive, but I am not sure that the "ISY Portal Node Server" is still available? 

I "think" Geofencing is now done via UD Mobile.

Not in the PG3 node server store.   Mine came across during the upgrade from 994 to eisy.

Correct. "ISY Portal Node Server" was introduced (on the ISY994) ages ago through the ISY Portal when you added the Occupancy Node Server. It comes across to Polyglot 3 (PG3/PG3x) as unmanaged (as yours shows). It is not "required" (as @MrBill replied). But if you're still using the Occupancy settings for geofence (as outlined in the wiki) then you would need to keep it available.

If you're not using the Occupancy+Locative option for geofence you can remove the node server. To remove it use the ISY Portal web site (see image below...select Configuration then "Remove")

Then you will probably need to remove it in your IoX admin console. Lastly refresh the dashboard for PG3x. You might need to restart PG3x (menu option under "System" in PG3x) for the database to update and remove the entry for slot 1.

UD Mobile has just recently added geofence as an option. It does not need the ISY Portal option that you have installed.

it is still available, and I still use it.
