HE spamming logs - Firmware update for [:] failed

[rakeshg]

Well - I thought I'd solved this by doing 3 things but no luck. I have tried the following for the 2 IRIS motion sensors (v3):

1. Changed driver to "device" and deleted any scheduled jobs
2. Changed driver to Generic Zigbee motion (instead of the one with motion/temp/humidity)
3. Download backup, do a soft reset and restore from backup

@jtp10181 - I have not tried your hack because the timing of the warnings is so unpredictable (it stopped for > 12 hours and then happened within 3 hours again) and while I think that it is related to the IRIS motion sensors, I cannot be sure (I have quite a few zigbee devices, so it would be quite a painful process).

Does anyone know if zigbee devices can try and update on their own (not user initiated)? Do IKEA and Xiaomi devices do something? Anything else that I should/could try?

By happy (unhappy?) coincidence, I managed to turn on debug logging for the IRIS motion sensor just at the time the firmware update warning happened.

This is what I see in the logs:

@mike.maxwell - does this mean anything?

Yesterday morning, I removed the 2 IRIS Motion Sensors (v3) from HE and I am no longer seeing the "warning" for failed firmware update (it has been over 24 hours).

I do have a need to use these sensors, so if anyone is using them on a C-5,(latest firmware) can you let me know if you are not seeing these log messages? Also, which driver are you using? Since I removed both at the same time, I don't know if I just have a sensor that is acting up or if there is something else going on.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks,

Please do, I've had this on my todo list for some time!

It took me a while to get to this but here is a link to the solution

Hubitat logs to db using Node-RED - LONG READ

A couple of people asked if I could document my process for using Node-RED to store and display HE logs, so here goes: Overall design Log data to DB : Node-RED WebSocket node subscribes to the data published by the logsocket connection on HE and stores the data into a mySQL database. If the log type is anything other than "debug", "info" or "warn", the flow sends out an SMS/email via Gmail using the email node. Display log data : Node-RED native dashboard ui_table is used to display the data.…

Hope this helps!

That's awesome, thanks very much for the detailed write-up!

I have some of these pieces in place already but your flows will help me to fill in the gaps
