I did all the checks to ensure my eisy was previously updated to the most recent versions, backed everything up and started the upgrade. My UD Portal signaled upgrade in progress several times, stopped pg3, told me my eisy rebooted and then told me that my node server was back up.

What scares me is this took only 12 minutes.

I am fearful of trying to log on lest I interfere with the process.

How long should I wait? 2 hours?

Thanks

Well, I couldn't wait and checked the sysconfig.txt file and showed everything up to date. Looked at the UDM and showed the same so logged in and WOW! everything was there via the java appet. Up to date.

Logged in via the web and all seemed good. PG3 was running, my notifications were working so far so good!

I was prepared for a looong process but 12-13 minutes?! Good job UDI!

My wish is that this wasn't, or so it may seem, going out to the cloud for logins via portal logins. I would like my old username back for both. I can sort of understand the change for the java applet but the web browser? But it is acceptable.

I have one more to go in about a month as it is remote. Hope I have the same luck.

I have been hesitant to upgrade given all the posts mentioning issues. So, this gives me hope.

However, some recent posts mentioned issues with their Z-wave devices after their upgrade. And as I have a significant number of Z-wave devices, I continue to hold off.

Do you have any Z-wave in your configuration?

My upgrade was smooth, as well, and I have some z-wave devices. To be clear, however, I had the z-matter board. I am not sure if another type of zwave dongle (such as the zooz) affects the upgrade process.

I do not have any zwave stuff yet. All insteon but the time is coming when I will need zwave items such as for one, motion detectors. The insteon motion sensors just don't work well. Don't think insteon has revealed all the coding aspects to UDI on some of their products.

I am also not an early adopter or upgrader. My guess is by now, udi has worked out most all of the upgrade kinks we have been following.

Please keep us posted.

While Insteon is my first choice, they just don't offer the variety that Z-wave does. I love the Zooz Z-wave motion detector switches - I use them in closets, pantry and my attic. A Z-wave fan controller for a fan that is 18 foot up and just not an easy install with the Insteon fanlinc. The Z-wave water detectors are much better as well. I use the UD Z-wave dongle. Z-wave does not always play well with scenes (it can respond, just not control) so that is the only real drawback.

@jkmcfadden

I just did the upgrade this morning. I have Zwave locks, motion detectors, Fan controls, switches and a few others. I had no issues at all. All my Zwave functions as designed as well as my insteon. Like the looks of the new Eisy-ui cant wait for it to become full functioning. UD team did a great job with this upgrade.
