Device presumed dead

Hello
When a device is "presumed death" the banner of the devicel turns red. The only way to recover is to restart Domoticz.
How can we recover information that do pass the red headband, to use it and revive Domoticz automatically by a script?

Not a solution, but you can also disable and enable the openzwave hardware i suppose ?

Thank you for your answer.
However, before putting it into production, I made the following little test with several peripherals:
Code: Select all
<?php
$domoticzurl='http://127.0.0.1:8080/';
$zwaveidx=9;
$devices=json_decode(file_get_contents($domoticzurl.'json.htm?type=openzwavenodes&idx='.$zwaveidx),true);
foreach($devices as $node=>$data)
{
echo $node;
}
?>
[code]
And the answer is always the same "status" and only "status". "Result" never appears as an answer.

Hello,
I have a "side" question .....
When a device in not "presumed", but
really dead, is there a way to replace it by a new one without having to redo all the settings/parameters/.... of the dead one for the new one ? (I had the case)
I'm thinking of the following, but I would like the "blessing" of a Domoticz insider before doing this.... (Didn't dare to try it ...)
1. In the device list, note the IdX of the dead switch: xx
2. Add a new device in Domoticz, and note the index of the newly created switch: yy
3. Stop Domoticz
4. Update the DB (with SQLITE3)
4a: Delete the new switch (just created) in the DeviceStatus table
Code: Select all
Delete from Devicestatus where ID = yy
4b: Update the old, dead swith in the DeviceStatus table and replace its index (ID column) by the one of the new swith:
Code: Select all
Update DeviceStatus Set ID = yy where ID = xx
5. Restart Domoticz
Would this do the job ?
I could eventually write a WIKI page on this if it is confirmed that it is the right way to perform that kind of device substitution...

When the band goes to red, the parameter "haveTimeout" goes to 1.
So there definitely has a routine in Domoticz that periodically checks this parameter for each device.
Could we use the result of this routine, for example, to send an SMS or MAIL to the occurrence of a change in this parameter.

Correct, but i also hear that devices are working again and domoticz still says it is bad.
For ZWave this is done here:
COpenZWave.cpp
void COpenZWave::OnZWaveNotification(OpenZWave::Notification const* _notification)
case OpenZWave::Notification::Type_Notification:
-- case OpenZWave::Notification::Code_Dead:
when it is dead (or from dead to alive), this function is called:
void ZWaveBase::ForceUpdateForNodeDevices(const unsigned int homeID, const int nodeID)
This function could be extended with the new state (NSTATE_AWAKE, NSTATE_SLEEP, NSTATE_DEAD)
And then we could add a notification for this
But because there are reports that it seems to not work 100% (i dont have this experience), it might not (... yet....) be a good idea for a notification ?

Does the changing of the parameter "haveTimeout" launch the script "script.device.xxx.lua"?

After how much time is marked device as dead? I am testing a notification script and I am waiting 30min, device is still not red (marked as dead).

I dont know, i guess when openzwave does not get a response in 3 retries... best to ask this on the openzwave forum
