I’m currently running the HA OS Hyper-v version and generally been happy with this.
What started out as a test just to see how things worked has become a bit more “production” at least to the point I’d rather not start over.
However, I just recently decided it’d be nice to be able to integrate some Inovelli switches which means a Z-wave dongle.
Obviously, this is an issue for a Hyper-V deployment. Which, yes, there are ways to work around the problem, but, I’m trying to keep my deployment less complicated if I can.
So, I’m looking at migrating my HA system to another machine - either something linux based, or, I’m even considering an Odroid/HA Blue type device.
My main question here is what’s the steps to move my configuration from the hyper-v VM to some other device or machine?
Can I simply do a backup/restore or do i just need to copy certain folders/files to the new system?
And, would the steps be different if using the HA Blue?
stupid question: what IS the issue with usb and hyper-v? Can’t imagine that usb passhtourgh on virtual box would work better then hyper-v.
nvm, did some googling.
I’m running virtual box on windows with z-wave dongle and was looking to move to hyper-v.
No knowing this know, i would look into running docker for the zwaveJS image on host machine
For your migration, configuration is easiest with backup and restore. If you dont mind history of events/states, then thats all you need afaik. If you do care on histroy, you’ll need t export and import DB too.
