How to downgrade zigbee2MQTT

Configuration
7

The add-ons share the data path /share/zigbee2mqtt so all your devices would be there.
Steps to use Edge (even if temporary):

  • Stop the Stable add-on
  • Backup your add-on configuration (add-on options)
  • Make sure you disable the Start on boot for Stable add-on
  • Backup your data from /share/zigbee2mqtt - Use Samba or some sort of file sharing to copy it off the device (this is just for safety, not necessary)
  • Install Edge
  • Set the Edge configuration / add-on options to the ones you got from the Stable one - Bonus you can enable the frontend using those settings (you would be missing the config if you overwrite all with your Stable config)
  • Start the Edge add-on

I also have both Edge and Stable, and right now I’m using Edge because of the Frontend feature. The move was seamless.

There is a feature requested wtih the Supervisor to allow downgrades: https://github.com/home-assistant/supervisor/issues/1843
