So, it seems that yet again an update has rendered my whole system broken, this has to be 3-4 times now in as many months, but who am i to complain right!
So my issue here now is that the “new IDs” are all duplicated, because my Fibaro modules are picked up as two devices, i’m not even sure what they both do.
As you can see they have the same node ID, but they were different entities. Now i am unable to hide the old 22_0_2 right, because they have the same new_entity_id
This threw me a little bit too, but when the new entity_ids are the same, the system still adds a number 2 to the second one for its actual namespace so there are no conflicts.
If you notice the second device you listed has _2 appended.
I did an entry in customize_glob
"*zwave_*_2":
hidden: true
(when I renamed the nodes I started all their names with zwave_)
It’s the frequency of such large breaking changes that is frustrating, and the constant reverting on big decisions.
Anyway, that aside, how do I actually correct the issue with duplicates? Reading the changelog and blog it seems the whole reason this method was ditched before was because of duplicate issues
There’s been a lot of changes required to move ZWave support into HA directly as opposed to using OZWCP for everything and having to shut down HA each time.
Along with that are necessary changes to make that work, but honestly I think we are leveling out on any major breaking changes for awhile.
Nope, same here, one dimmer switch that has like a thousand useless sensors on it, then a complete duplicate of the dimmer and another thousand useless sensors.
Like I said, I just hide them with customize_glob.
