Aeotec Zwave network persistence through dz reinstallation?

Post by Ph0tonblast »

Hi guys,

I have the need to reinstall my RPI that's running Raspbian buster. However, despite decent domoticz backups, I am kinda anxious to reinstall my domoticz because I don't know what will happen to my zwave+ network. I currently have 16 devices and I kinda don't really want to re-pair them all. I'm running an Aeotec gen5 z-wave stick as controller

Please help me out of my misery?
Thanks!

You should be OK. The important information is in the stick and in the database. The other files are rebuild by Zwave/ domoticz based on that data.

Hi, I don't know whether you (will/did) get this as well, but I do regularly lose all the names of the devices (in the 'Setup' screen in Domoticz). I got it again during the last update of Domoticz.
Unfortunately, they are also not saved in the OpenZWave Control Panel. So it's always good to have a backup screenshot of the hardware names...

Good luck!
