Iām running on an big ass VM server. Resources are not the issue.
Before I switched to the Hass io plugin, I had a separated VM running Ubuntu and Deconz, and one running Hass io. I saw similar behaviour when I booted the vmās at the same time.
When I restart Hass io, all devices are present.
I think the issue is in the Deconz plugin, with adding devices after hass io startup.
If resources arenāt the issue then itās Hass.io and the startup sequence. Iām guessing that deCONZ just needs some time to read itās database, etc before itās ready to serve devices over the API.
Hi
I successfully installed conbee and deconz addon in hassio on my intel nuc. I use xiaomi aqara push buttons, fire detectors, temperature sensors, water leak and motion sensors.
I can see my devices and connect them to conbee network when the conbee is plugged into my windows machine with deconz gui. But in hassio web interface or home assistant, all my sensors and switches are invisible. I cannot see any devices/sensors to use. I have done several restarts etsā¦ Also successfully accessed the web interface, got the api code , changed password etc.
Anyone has any good tips on how to proceed?
Best

This part isnāt quite clear to me - can you see any devices in the deCONZ web ui (either Wireless Light Control or Phoscon)? In Wireless Light Control, on the settings menu at the bottom, does it list your deviceās channel and network id (it should, given the logs youāve posted from the deCONZ add-on). If your devices arenāt showing up in the deCONZ UIs, then they wonāt show up in Home Assistant either.
Thank you for your interest in this
No, no devices shows in wireless light control or phoscon.
Settings page says: āYour gateway is on channel 15 and has the network Id 0xf037ā
If I instead put the conbee in my windows machine and run the deconz program and GUI, all devices show including status changes (blue flashing lights in gui) when buttons are pressed etc.
This is very strange - I would raise an issue at the deconz rest API GitHub page since this sounds like a deconz issue rather than a Home Assistant issue.
Have you registered your devices to your conbee while on your windows machine? If so, you will need to make sure that all database files are copied over to your new machine because conbee doesnāt store any information directly on the stick
Thatās true about the device details but he should still see devices populated in the Web UIs since the devices are paired to the Conbee itself - they just wouldnāt have any custom names (also I think scenes and groups might not be present).
@gjong whatās the update procedure for your add-on?
Now Iām running the 2.05.10 version and every time I reboot my Raspberry Pi, the deconz configuration panel is shown in home assistant and I have to unlock the gateway. May be that the new version solves this problem?
Updating should be easy, just download the latest version and overwite the addon folder of the plugin. Then in the interface hit upgrade, do not uninstall the previous version first.
With Regards to hassio lossing itās Connection, that should not happen. The addon persists all configuration and group information to a persistent directory. After reboot are the group still present in deconz? If so the reboot did not erase the configuratie.
Perhaps the hassio configuration files get remove in the /config directory. The deconz plugin created several files with generated configuration.
It should have an update or upgrade button in the hassio interface. Go onto the addon in the hassio and it is next to the Start, stop and uninstall buttons. The update will taken some Time as it has to compile the image on the pi itself.
If you are not comfortabel doing this manually every time, downloaden copying over the files and manually updating I suggest looping into the addon from marthoc. It is easier to use and works fine. If you want to change to that addon then first create an backup from with in the deconz software. You can then install the other addon and restore the backup from within deconz.
