My understanding is Vera needs Internet access to set its clock, and after successful bootup, will establish the z-wave network. After about 5 to 10 minutes, the Vera should be functioning normally (assuming it was acting normally before the reboot).
Datamine2.
Just be careful using it as setting saving data to USB stick is tricky sometimes (I had an issue when data were wrongly saved to internal memory, which of course caused problem with filling it rapidly)
I’ve found interesting thing.
Both my controllers performed very well since last issues (about 6-th - 7th February). Then at the beginning of this month both had unusual drain of memory (on 5th March) and the clearing scene was triggered.
Maybe just coincidence, but it looks like some regularity. I’m curious if there is some activity Vera or some plugins do at the beginning of each month?

I’m worried that the reset button on my Vera Secure is going to break one day as it is pressed (for 30 seconds) so many times because the unit becomes non-responsive. Can you give more details on how I can set up a “clearing scene”? Maybe it will help

Whaat? Doesn’t a normal reboot help?
Yes - it does help. But I have to remember to do one every week. If I forget, I pay by getting a message saying my controller is down. . . .
Cant you access it from lan either?
Or just power cycle it?
Reupping :When Vera reboots, does it need to re-establish the zwave neighbor network?
It shouldn’t have to as the network map should be saved.
First you have to install system monitor plugin, to get data about memory.
Then you create a scene with the code I provided before. You can run this scene on schedule, or you can set your system to watch changes in the free memory and then trigger apropriate scene (see this post for how to do it: http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,18679.msg217315.html#msg217315 )
Consider using a datamine2 to track history of your system data, like memory, luup reloads, etc.
This may give you some hits about what causes your problem, as it doesn’t have to be memory issue.

That is exactly what I’m looking for - to try and figure out what is causing the problem. Thank you for posting the steps!
