Yup, was confirmed...
Quick preview...
Bobby et all,
The new UI puts grouping by room very front and center. I never really bothered setting that up after an initial test. Is this something you think I should take the time to do?
My reasoning was that less than 200 devices doesn't really need partitioning because I hide their logical relationships behind user interfaces, automations or Amazon echo routines and that's where I partition devices into logical groups like rooms or device types. I didn't see the grouping carry forward into the end user dashboard or automations so it just didn't seem worth the effort.
Am I thinking about this wrong? In this new release the room concept is very front and center, but if I'm honest I didn't really access the management interface for anything outside setting up, automating or troubleshoot devices and given how stable my system has been that has become much less frequent over the years.
Final q. My two C7 hubs updated perfectly but my C8 pro isn't updating. I keep on getting update failed about halfway through while downloading the update.
I've tried about 10 times in the past 12 hours.
Anything I should do differently?
This is my main hub with the most devices on. The other two hubs present remote devices to this hub via hub mesh and I do all automations in this hub to ensure I coordinate well across my automations.
You can try going into network settings and changing the Ethernet speed setting of the hub from Auto to 100, or if it's already set to 100 change it to Auto.
Basically whatever setting it has now change it to the other.
Incredible. I changed it from 100 fixed to automatic and it downloaded in about 7-10 seconds. Thank you!
I have a 1gig fully symmetric link to the Internet with no sharing, it's my own fiber.
But there is really no reason to have JavaScript usurp a link just to supply a second link that avoids the JavaScript.
And that explains why I do not have it! Thanks!
Overall, I like the fresh coat of paint. It will take some getting used to, though, so we'll see how I fare on the UX side once I've used it for a bit.
Thanks for the update. Some really nice changes here. You may know this, but there's still a few minor UI text issues in the responsive design, both on mobile and web. One screenshot example. (Notice how "Devices with no room." is cut off). Granted, I can resize the window larger, but a responsive design should adapt automatically.
Minor gripe, but happy to see the progress.
Yes.
I had to reboot my C8 Pro before the update would download. Iβve seen this before so knew what to do.
All 4 of my hubs now updated. 2 c8s 2 c7s all seems ok now.
Wow. Great work Hubitat team. The new workshops workflows are going to be interesting to get used to, but all in all, color me impressed!
S
Has anyone been able to update to 2.4.0.143? I updated my hub to 2.4.0.142 earlier and @gopher.ny posted in Release Notes that an update was available, but I don't see it. Checking for updates just hangs with the animated bar going back and forth.
What are tags?
No issues here. Unless they pulled it, I would try a reboot, then changing your network settings before throwing up the red flag.
Must have been a temporary glitch. Made no changes and it worked fine this morning.
Change your network settings from fixed 100 to auto on the hub
The update worked this morning - made no changes to the hub, so must have been some temporary issue.
