So, I’m recovering from a corrupted SD card and am rebuilding my instance of HA from scratch.
I knew Id have a bunch of questions and problems so I started a thread so they’d all be in one place.
I’m running a Pi 3 with the 64 bit image… and its seems to be running fine.
I’m still using the default dashboard… i wanted to have as few “non-standard” items installed while I bring the beast to life.
The configuration.yaml file is the default one I’ve not touched it.
What’s done so far
- I’ve rebuilt and have started populating the instance
- installed samba - Its working
- installed SSH - Its working
- installed HACS via SSH - Its working
- installed VSCode - Its working
Question 1.
I’ve got two people defined… their cards show up but each has a caption/title underneath that says UNKNOWN… why?
The settinga card looks “normal”
Is this just a product of the default dashboard?
Question 2.
In my previous instance I had a ZWave controller with all my ZWave devices discovered by it. Its currently NOT connected to the USB slot on the Pi box… do I just plug it back in and HA will see what on the stick and import the entities? Or do I need to reset the stick and let it discover all the devices all over again and then plug it into the Pi?
Question 3.
I do not have any ZWave integration installed yet… Should I install ZWave JS first or after the ZWave controller.
Thanks all!
