I?ve had a veralite on ui5 for many years now, learning and programming from very little knowledge to a point where i can happily instruct it to do what i want. (Mostly thanks to these forums!)
However, over the years i?ve experienced crashes bugs and faults and deleted/modified code to work around issues. One issue i used to have, and occasionally still do, is that veralite will ?forget? devices on its network. Originally, i had to re-include that device on the network as a ?new device? and reprogram everything to work with its ?new? id. Still with less than a dozen devices, my last new device number had incremented to number 99, as have my scene numbers where i have deleted them and created new ones over the years.
Eventually I discovered the quick fix is to restore from the last good backup. An annoying inconvenience but a quick fix. Even now, some scenes/commands occasionally do not execute as they fail to communicate to their devices.
What im wondering is, after many years of ?abuse? would it be useful to wipe and start a fresh to ?wipe out? any skeletons hanging in the vera-closet? Maybe there is a flush out command? Im pretty sure all unused devices have been removed from the veralite, at least according to what is visible.
This would be a chance to move to ui7 but i dont feel ready for a new set of headaches just yet. Id just like to stabilise what i have, if i can in anyway.
Any advice anyone?
Thanks
