Hi, @toggledbits!
I have a question about the execution behavior. See the code below, and I'll explain the situation.
12957c3e-ff06-46c9-929d-b53f936665df-image.png
This is a routine that, at a certain point, determines that the desktop on which the VM hosting the Reactor is located receives an instruction to perform a shutdown (Shell Command).
When this happens, the desktop is turned off, and then Hubitat detects by a "ping" that the VM has been down, waits 15 seconds, turns off the power to this desktop, and then 15 seconds later turns on the desktop with the Reactor VM again.
After restarting the desktop, the VM is loaded, and the Reactor is triggered. Still, the following problem occurs: I expected that when the rule was continued to be executed again, the next step would be executed, that of the 900-second delay after shutdown, but the Shell command is executed again, and then it goes into a loop, the rule does not advance.
To break the loop, I first have to make the VM not load, change the desktop password, and then start the VM. In this case, Reactor generates an error when trying to execute the Shell Command because of the invalid password and then finishes the routine following the 900 delay step.
b58b0d4a-d6c1-4fe3-bab7-4222acea9607-image.png
Is my interpretation that when it returns, the routine should continue to the next step that has not yet been executed incorrectly? Or does Reactor, through the shutdown command, interpret that it hasn't finished this step and keep trying, which is the correct reaction?
Thanks for clarifying.
Build 21228 has been released. Docker images available from DockerHub as usual, and bare-metal packages here.
Home Assistant up to version 2021.8.6 supported; the online version of the manual will now state the current supported versions; Fix an error in OWMWeatherController that could cause it to stop updating; Unify the approach to entity filtering on all hub interface classes (controllers); this works for device entities only; it may be extended to other entities later; Improve error detail in messages for EzloController during auth phase; Add isRuleSet() and isRuleEnabled() functions to expressions extensions; Implement set action for lock and passage capabilities (makes them more easily scriptable in some cases); Fix a place in the UI where 24-hour time was not being displayed.Hi @toggledbits ,
I'm slowly moving my ZWave network from Vera to ZWaveJS. I successfully cloned my ZWave network using a spare Vera Edge (a new post for the community later when I'll be fully back from vacation) and I'm testing a couple of things before moving everything to ZWaveJS.
In the meanwhile, I have a couple of venetian blinds connected to Fibaro Roller Shutters 2 (FGR222) and I'm using some proprietary ZWave commands to control the tilt position, that right now I'm sending via Vera (with some code from the old place, messing with this):
af7f883c-f49e-419c-a2fe-8669572e3792-image.png
The ZWaveJS values are reported via this:
x_zwave_values.Manufacturer_Proprietary_fibaro_venetianBlindsPosition=0 x_zwave_values.Manufacturer_Proprietary_fibaro_venetianBlindsTilt=0I hope there's a way to expose a separate device to control the tilt position directly, without doing the mess I'm doing now. Let me know if you need some files. Thanks.
As per @toggledbits request, new topic.

Good morning,
I have a service MQTT service that needs a restart occasionally. The add-on (Smartbed MQTT) is for the smart bed base for my bed. It has a "safety light" that I can control from HAAS & MSR as a light entity, and also moves the head of the bed to a preset at bedtime, and then lies it back flat in the morning The problem is, from time to time, the light becomes "unavailable" Restarting from the Add-ons tab in HAAS always fixes it, but I should be able to detect when it happens when "light.tempur_pedic_safety_lights" is not true or false, i.e., unavailable.
What I don't know how to do is how to restart that service. Does anybody have experience in restarting add-ons from MSR?

RPi5-64 (8GB) Core 2024.7.3 Supervisor 2024.08.0 Operating System 13.0 Frontend 20240710.0Hi-
I have an android media player entity publishing from HA. I watch for changes in transport state and media title to trigger some actions.
Though those attributes report as expected, the set rule is being throttled for possible flapping.
There is an attribute for media position that continually updates, I suspect it is causing the evaluations to run constantly.
The workaround I am seeking is to ignore those attributes in HA or MSR. Anyone know how, or have a better idea??
Thx
Btw- this problem has spanned versions of HA and reactor, but I am current on both. Too current on HA for transparency, but the issue has survived several updates.
Referencing an expression inside a reaction is in the form of ${{ expression }}. When referenced inside my shell command to set the watering delay duration for my Rachio sprinkler system, it just does not work.
If I enter "86400" instead of referencing the expression lWateringDelayDuration, it works. Either I am doing something wrong or referencing an expression inside a shell command is not supported.

As per @toggledbits request, here's a new topic.
My Fibaro Door Window Sensor 2 (FGDW002) is always reporting as open, even if
x_zwave_values.Notification_Access_Control_Door_state=23 x_zwave_values.Notification_Access_Control_Door_state_simple=23which means that the door is closed. It was working before and I could downgrade to test, if necessary. Thanks.
Hi @toggledbits,
I'm not sure if it's a bug or something, but I have a lot of Fibaro Double Switch (FGS223) as follows.
In the example, it's zwavejs>65-2:
energy_sensor.units="kWh" energy_sensor.value=0.21 power_sensor.units="W" power_sensor.value=0 power_switch.state=false x_debug.dt={"entity_class":"Switch","match":"deviceClass.generic.key=16","capabilities":["power_switch","toggle"],"primary_attribute":"power_switch.state"} x_zwave_values.Binary_Switch_currentValue=false x_zwave_values.Binary_Switch_targetValue=false x_zwave_values.Meter_reset=null x_zwave_values.Meter_value_65537=0.21 x_zwave_values.Meter_value_66049=0 zwave_device.capabilities=[37,50] zwave_device.endpoint=2 zwave_device.failed=null zwave_device.impl_sig="23326:1:22315:1" zwave_device.manufacturer_info=null zwave_device.node_id=65 zwave_device.version_info=nullWhen operating endpoint 2, it's triggered endpoint 1. Endpoint 1 is fine. This is causing a lot of troubles, as you may imagine.
Also, endpoint 0 is not really a switch, and the associated actions are not doing anything at all. Maybe these could be removed. Also, I see battery_maintenance and power_source capabilities, all with null values.

Good morning,
I'm having an issue with controlling my Zooz Zen14 outdoor double outlet. I should be able to control each outlet individually, and this does work when use Home Assistant (haas) from Reactor.
When I use zwavejs, I see 3 entries:
8305eccf-a99e-421f-ad18-1f08da9c8c9c-image.png
The first entry is for the overall device. I can turn both outlets on and off (in theory) by setting the power_switch state to on or off. This does turn them on and off when using zwavejs.
When I go to the individual outlets, performing the power_switch.on or power_switch.off actions turns them all (main, 1 and 2) on or off, and not just the individual outlets. When I perform the same action from haas, turning on outlet 1 will turn on the main switch and 1, but not 2.
I reviewed the logs for that node and I'm not seeing anything obvious.

I think this feature request could be accomplished with the use of two or more rules, but it would be great if there was a way to wait for an event or trigger to occur before continuing on in the reactions.
For example, I have a rule that will turn on some exterior lights if you arrive home after the porch lights have been turned off. Right now this rule randomly will turn off between 5-10 minutes after the person has entered the geofence. On some occasions this 5-10 minutes isn't long enough, say if you are unloading the car or something. I would like to kick off the reaction, but pause it part way through and wait for the door to close and lock, then continue it on. Hubitat Rule Machine has a "Wait for event" option, but I really want to keep all my logic within MSR.
Hi,
Running the latest version 24212 on docker.
I want to run some appliances when my solar panels deliver over 1200 watts to the net. In this example the dryer. So when the dryer is turned on, the rule starts (SET). There first is a 3 min delay in case the dryer is turned on manually, that is group "Check if auto start is needed". If the dryer is not running, the status is set to waiting, and the shown Repeat Until should wait as long the power delivered is higher than -1200 for at least 120 seconds and the status is still waiting. Higher as the value is negative. For some reason that repeat until "DR Wait for solar high or manual start" looks skipped. Nothing in the logs. What am I missing?
Reactor Automation.png (g_DryerStatus should have been "waiting" and not "running" the moment the log was captured, so that should not be the issue. Unless it takes some time for a variable to actually change?)
Cheers Rene
I have got some warnings i reactor that a rule is throttled because it update rate is over 120/minute, happens now and when with a week or two in between.
The rule monitors my house power consumption when charging my car, and if if consumption risks to kill a main fuse, it stops the charging.
Thought I was clever when I in Constraints added that my car should be located at home and charging is active, but apparantly it wasn't clever enough...
I had understand it that if Constraints isn't true, then the triggers isn't evaluated.
I have a Shelly 3EM meter that measure three channel/phases and updates every second. So just for this three channels it is 180 updates per minute...
And now when I start to take a closer look I can se in my logs that this rule is evaluated with every value change on any of the three phases...
So ~11MB of logs only goes back in time around 16 hours...🙀
So what is the best solution?
Should move my "Constraints" in an new trigger group, before my existing triggers?
Rule as it is now

Hi!
I'm wondering if it's possible now, or if it's something that can be solved in a future version, to be able to remove the entities that no longer exist and are crossed out all at once. Currently, you have to mark them one by one, which takes a lot of time. Is there any way to make this more efficient?
I'm on MSR version 24212-3ce15e25.
Thanks!

I'm slowly migrating all my stuff to MQTT under MSR, so I have a central place to integrate everything (and, in a not-so-distant future, to remove virtual devices from my Vera and leave it running zwave only).
Anyway, here's my reactor-mqtt-contrib package:
![](https://github.com/fluidicon.png)
Contrib MQTT templates for Reactor. Contribute to dbochicchio/reactor-mqtt-contrib development by creating an account on GitHub.
Simply download yaml files (everything or just the ones you need) and you're good to go.
I have mapped my most useful devices, but I'll add others soon. Feel free to ask for specific templates, since I've worked a lot in the last weeks to understand and operate them.
The templates are supporting both init and query, so you have always up-to-date devices at startup, and the ability to poll them. Online status is supported as well, so you can get disconnected devices with a simple expression.
Many-many thanks to @toggledbits for its dedication, support, and patience with me and my requests 🙂
Good morning,
I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to evaluate if a command was completed and retry if it did not complete.
I have 14 iBlinds 3.1 z-wave controllers in my home. 95% of the time, they work just fine. Occasionally, I'll get a blind that does not open on the first attempt. When I go into Home Assistant, and manually open or close the blind, it works.
I have 3 reactions set up for each room. One to open, one to close, and one partial open for sun glare. Each of them is set up as below.
5afc9924-4300-4718-9e23-8855c4a3a9fd-image.png
The reactions are set up to wait for 5 seconds before going onto the next blind, so the z-wave network doesn't get overwhelmed.
In addition, the set command to run the reactions has "Wait for completion" checked.

I also have a routine set up whenever a z-wave device reports as non-functional (dead), it'll get pinged to wake it up. This usually works to wake them up.

Appreciate any ideas to make this more reliable.
I'm running:
Reactor latest-24190-bd310acc, Bare-metal on Fedora WaveJSController [0.1.23326] Home Assistant: 2024.7.0[Solved] Is there a cap or max number of devices a Global Reaction should not exceed?
-
Noticed in the last few nights that my Global Reaction to turn on a mere six lights in the evenings the same two devices no longer turn on. One is a dimming smart bulb, the other is a wall outlet.
This has been running flawlessly for months - just in the last few nights I've noticed these two devices being left behind and yes, it's always these two devices only.
"What changed?"
- No Hubitat firmware updates
- No new devices added to Hubitat
- list itemTwo MSR updates (the last two, I keep up with the latest)
- list itemHome Assistant releases (should have zero bearing, HA is nothing more than pretty dashboards)
- list itemAdded MQTT to MSR
I did do a z-wave "repair" last night and am waiting to see if this helps.
Is there any maximum or cap on number of devices that should be included in a Global Reaction?
*Marked as solved as the question asked was answered. The issue persists but the question was answered.
-
You don't say specifically, but when you say "dimming smart bulb", I'm thinking plugin, not ZWave. Can be more specific about the devices involved?
To answer the question asked, no, there's no limit.
-
It's a smartbulb, unfortunately Hubitat labels it as "Generic ZWave Smart Dimmer" which is misleading. This appears to be a GoControl Z-Wave Dimmable LED Light Bulb, LB60Z-1.
The second device is also misleadingly named in Hubitat as "Generic Z-Wave Relay". It is a GoControl WO15Z outlet.
-
Something I don't do on Hubitat that I have to do on Vera is pace actions... by default, VeraController will not send actions more frequently than every 25ms, and this pace seems to work (there have not been any complaints about missing actions that can't be attributed to other causes).
Maybe Hubitat needs it too... that would be a bummer. If adding delays to your reaction resolves the issue, that points in that direction.
-
OK, so I'll add some pacing to Hubitat as well. That's disappointing.
-
As this has worked flawlessly since MSR was released I'm inclined this is an unfortunate code change somewhere in one of the last releases of Hubitat - although, their last release was some weeks ago. Perhaps something in one of the last couple MSR releases "triggered" something they'd changed that had previously been dormant? Dunno. Thinking aloud.
-
None of the recent code changes to Hubitat would affect the performance of actions. The most notable of the changes was resolution of race condition during startup (when the Mode and HSM states are truly updated during startup), and not remotely close to the action implementation. All of the other changes are trivial, and again, not near the action implementation.
It would be easy to prove that the actions are being sent, if you want to run a more detailed test. The logging of actions on Hubitat is, and has been for some time, unconditional, so there will be (or not) evidence in the logs that the actions were sent to Hubitat. If you remove your recently-added delays and run like it was until it fails again, then peruse the logs, I'm pretty sure you'll find those actions were being attempted, at least. I strongly suspect they will be there. If not, there's a high chance we'll see another reason for why they are not.
This highlights, again, that reporting problems in the blind isn't useful. The logs are there for a reason. If something on the engine side isn't working as expected, it should be among the first places you look.
-
Of course. The performance of the Hubitat and the mesh are also an issue here. It's a complex system with many variables.
-
I believe I am having a similar problem to the one discussed above, the perception that MSR is much faster than Hubitat.
I explain.
The MSR instantly receives everything that happens in Hubitat, any change of a device when it happens in Hubitat, immediately the MSR recognizes and if there is an action to be taken, immediately evaluates the action and fires the commands.
Then comes the problem, when the MSR triggers the actions for Hubitat devices, it loses actions, does not execute everything, hour an action is completed in all steps, hour fails. If I order to active 5 bulbs in sequence, almost always fails some, not always the same, varies on factors that I do not dominate.
And it doesn't need to have many actions, I have situations of quick reaction action as just turn on a light also failing.
Ok has the factor of the terrible signal from Hubitat (if compared to Vera), a bad management of the mesh network, where I see that the neighbours are poorly mapped and the mesh network poorly built.
But the failure scenario also happens with devices connected direct/next to the Hub.
In summary, the perception I have is that MSR is much faster than Hubitat that misses actions.
Include delay to each action would be a chaos, ok it can be a workaround, but it can't be the final solution.
Is it possible to have something in the configuration that creates the delay when sending each command to Hubitat? Like something like 0.5 seconds between actions?
I don't know if this would solve it, maybe you guys with more experience can point some way forward as the nightmare I had with Vera now happens on Hubitat.
Thanks.

As stated in this thread, He added pacing to Hubitat.
From the docs:
action_pace — sets the minimum delay between actions sent to the hub (i.e. when a Reaction includes many); sending large numbers of requests can overwhelm the hub, it has been found, so this attempts to slow the pace to avoid this issue. The value must be an integer greater than 0, and the units are milliseconds; the default is 25."the nightmare I had with Vera now happens on Hubitat" If the problem was present before then I doubt that this will solve it.
-
@sweetgenius per your history above, by adding this delay to all actions, did it solve the problem? What time frame are you using? Did you leave the default at 25 milliseconds, or did you add more?
-
@wmarcolin said in [Solved] Is there a cap or max number of devices a Global Reaction should not exceed?:
per your history above,
I do not have any history above, Its not my thread nor did I comment until I read your post. I just read the thread and release notes and pointed out that both mention pacing.

@sweetgenius ops, thanks!

@toggledbits hi master!
I am going into a state of despair with Hubitat, and thinking that I have made a bad switch from VeraPlus to Hubitat.
Well, as you always comment, look at the log, as I already commented my suspicion that the MSR sent all commands to Hubitat, and this one that failed was confirmed, as you mention in your message.
Routines below.
Looking at the log, I don't understand what sequence the MSR performed, but I see that all of the above actions were sent to Hubitat without fail.

I have checked each of the devices, all are in the log. I am even using the action_pace: 100 setting and I see that the interval was obeyed.
But out of 10 lights that should be on, as you can see on the Hubitat's panel only 2 were.
Sorry @toggledbits to ask, and I will understand if you don't answer because I see that the MSR is perfect.
Any recommendations for Hubitat? Reset the whole Z-wave radio and pair it again? Any APP that can check radio occupancy or Hubitat processing? Maybe you with your experience can give me some guidance, and again sorry, I know it is not MSR, but I'm almost back to the Vera with all its problems of drive and evolution.
-
@wmarcolin I don't have a Hubitat myself but have you looked at the logs on the hub per https://docs.hubitat.com/index.php?title=Logs for hints of what is happening when set reaction fires?
-
@wmarcolin Something you've not surfaced, wireless interference. How close is your Hubitat to your WiFi router (they should not be near each other as they will interfere due to the frequencies in use), how close are your z-wave hubs to each other, etc.
Are all devices the kind that are plugged into electricity? I've discovered with some battery-operated devices that they sleep a lot to conserve battery and that delays actions. My iblind controllers are a perfect example: sending a refresh first and then the command seems to make them much happier regarding responding to commands.
As @toggledbits noted in a response to me previously in the thread (and you've supported), the mesh plays a huge role, too.
I had a Veralite and then moved to a VeraSecure. I've done direct comparisons between my VeraSecure and Hubitat using MSR to trigger the rules and the Hubitat was much faster. That, amongst other reasons, is why my VeraSecure is now completely offline.

Looking at the log, I don't understand what sequence the MSR performed, but I see that all of the above actions were sent to Hubitat
Hmmm. I can't answer for the Hubitat part, but I explain the order. The first three actions in nGarden<SET> are Run Reaction, so these enqueue those reactions with the executive -- they are not run in-line. That's why you see the three "Enqueueing" lines, followed by a resume of nGarden<Set> from step 4. We see the action output for device 298, which is step 3 (numbered from 0), before the enqueue messages because enqueueing itself is an asynchronous operation, so the executive quickly started the three Run Reaction enqueue requests, then ran the device 298 Entity Action. Running an entity action is asynchronous, so the executive had to wait for that operation to finish. Since it went into a wait state, the tasks for the three Run Reaction enqueues could run, so they did. When they were done and the 298 device action was finished sending, nGarden<SET> could then resume from step 4 (numbered from 0, so 5 as we look at it). That's device 296 so we see that on the next line. Again, device actions have to wait for the send, so execution paused of nGarden<Set> paused there, which allowed nLight Garden ON, the first of the three enqueued reactions, to start and send its first command to device 97. That blocked that reaction, so nLight Security ON was next in the queue and it started and sent its first device action to 197. That blocked that reaction, so nLight Corredor Evening started and ran its first action against 419. It blocked, of course, so everything paused about 70ms until nGarden<Set> became the first ready task, so it resumed at step 5 (from 0, or 6 as we count from 1). And so on, until all were sent.
I'm not sure what your pacing configuration was at this point, but overall it appears about right for the number of tasks sent. It's hard to tell without more debug on, and maybe I'll add some "standard" messages about device queueing while we're looking at this (since debug on a Controller instance can be very large and a bit like sipping from a firehouse).
One thing to note also is that each Entity Action blocks while sending -- the reaction waits for the hub to acknowledge the request. For that to happen, the request must be sent, and the hub has to give an HTTP 200 (OK) response to the request (if it gives an error, that would be logged, and there are no errors logged in this snippet). So at the least, the hub has acknowledged the request, but that doesn't mean it has completed the request, let alone that the request was successful in its overall execution (e.g. manipulating the device). That's a different and much bigger problem.
I'm not done looking at this. I want to study the timing more carefully as well. There's something about it that doesn't seem right to me. As I said, I'm going to add some more standard (non-debug) diagnostic output to this while we're looking at it, and roll a new release later today, for you to try and send me new logs.
