Having been messing around with some stuff I worked a way to self trigger some tests that I wanted to do on the HA <> MSR integration
This got me wondering if there's an entity that changes state / is exposed when a configured controller goes off line? I can't see one but thought it might be hidden or something?

Using build 25328 and having the following users.yaml configuration:
users:
# This section defines your valid users.
admin: *******
groups:
# This section defines your user groups. Optionally, it defines application
# and API access restrictions (ACLs) for the group. Users may belong to
# more than one group. Again, no required or special groups here.
admin_group:
users:
- admin
applications: true # special form allows access to ALL applications
guests:
users: "*"
applications:
- dashboard
api_acls:
# This ACL allows users in the "admin" group to access the API
- url: "/api"
group: admin_group
allow: true
log: true
# This ACL allows anyone/thing to access the /api/v1/alive API endpoint
- url: "/api/v1/alive"
allow: true
session:
timeout: 7200 # (seconds)
rolling: true # activity extends timeout when true
# If log_acls is true, the selected ACL for every API access is logged.
log_acls: true
# If debug_acls is true, even more information about ACL selection is logged.
debug_acls: true
My goal is to allow anonymous user to dashboard, but MSR is still asking for a password when trying to access that. Nothing in the logs related to dashboard access. Probably an error in the configuration, but help needed to find that. Tried to put url: "/dashboard" under api_acls, but that was a long shot and didn't work.
I use Virtual Entity Controller virtual switches which I turn on via webhooks from other applications. Once a switch triggers and turns on, I can then activate associated rules.
I would like each virtual switch to automatically turn off after a configurable time (e.g., 5 seconds, 10 seconds).
Is there a better way to achieve this auto-off behavior instead of creating a separate rule for each switch that uses the 'Condition must be sustained for' option to turn it off?
With a large number of these switches (and the associated turn-off rules), I'm checking to see if there is a simpler approach.If not, could this be a feature request to add an auto-off timer directly to the virtual switches.
Thanks

TL;DR: Format of data in storage directory will soon change. Make sure you are backing up the contents of that directory in its entirety, and you preserve your backups for an extended period, particularly the backup you take right before upgrading to the build containing this change (date of that is still to be determined, but soon). The old data format will remain readable (so you'll be able to read your pre-change backups) for the foreseeable future.
In support of a number of other changes in the works, I have found it necessary to change the storage format for Reactor objects in storage at the physical level.
Until now, plain, standard JSON has been used to store the data (everything under the storage directory). This has served well, but has a few limitations, including no real support for native JavaScript objects like Date, Map, Set, and others. It also is unable to store data that contains "loops" — objects that reference themselves in some way.
I'm not sure exactly when, but in the not-too-distant future I will publish a build using the new data format. It will automatically convert existing JSON data to the new format. For the moment, it will save data in both the new format and the old JSON format, preferring the former when loading data from storage. I have been running my own home with this new format for several months, and have no issues with data loss or corruption.
A few other things to know:
If you are not already backing up your storage directory, you should be. At a minimum, back this directory up every time you make big changes to your Rules, Reactions, etc.
Your existing JSON-format backups will continue to be readable for the long-term (years). The code that loads data from these files looks for the new file format first (which will have a .dval suffix), and if not found, will happily read (and convert) a same-basenamed .json file (i.e. it looks for ruleid.dval first, and if it doesn't find it, it tries to load ruleid.json). I'll publish detailed instructions for restoring from old backups when the build is posted (it's easy).
The new .dval files are not directly human-readable or editable as easily as the old .json files. A new utility will be provided in the tools directory to convert .dval data to .json format, which you can then read or edit if you find that necessary. However, that may not work for all future data, as my intent is to make more native JavaScript objects directly storable, and many of those objects cannot be stored in JSON.
You may need to modify your backup tools/scripts to pick up the new files: if you explicitly name .json files (rather than just specifying the entire storage directory) in your backup configuration, you will need to add .dval files to get a complete, accurate backup. I don't think this will be an issue for any of you; I imagine that you're all just backing up the entire contents of storage regardless of format/name, that is the safest (and IMO most correct) way to go (if that's not what you're doing, consider changing your approach).
The current code stores the data in both the .dval form and the .json form to hedge against any real-world problems I don't encounter in my own use. Some future build will drop this redundancy (i.e. save only to .dval form). However, the read code for the .json form will remain in any case.
This applies only to persistent storage that Reactor creates and controls under the storage tree. All other JSON data files (e.g. device data for Controllers) are unaffected by this change and will remain in that form. YAML files are also unaffected by this change.
This thread is open for any questions or concerns.
Just another thought. Adding devices from my Home Assistant / Zigbee2MQTT integration. Works perfectly but they always add as their IEEE address. Some of these devices have up to 10 entities associated, and the moment they are renamed to something sensible, each of those entities 'ceases to exist' in MSR. I like things tidy, and deleting each defunct entity needs 3 clicks.
Any chance of a 'bulk delete' option?
No biggy as I've pretty much finished my Z-wave migration and I don't expect to be adding more than 2 new Zigbee devices

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.
I have tried numerous ways to define a recurring annual period, for example from December 15 to January 15. No matter which method I try - after and before, between, after and/not after, Reactor reports "waiting for invalid date, invalid date. Some constructs also seem to cause Reactor to hang, timeout and restart. For example "before January 15 is evaluated as true, but reports "waiting for invalid date, invalid date". Does anyone have a tried and true method to define a recurring annual period? I think the "between" that I used successfully in the past may have broken with one of the updates.
Good evening all,
For about the past week or so, I've been having problems with a specific rule in my home automation that controls when my home goes from an Away mode to Home mode. One of the conditions it checked for was my alarm panel, when it changed from Armed Away to Disarmed. There seems to have been a firmware update on the panel that added an intermittent step of "pending", and I can't say for certain it happens 100% of the time.
Is there a way to write a condition that so it changes from one condition, to the next, and then another condition? As in, Home alarm changes from armed_away to pending to disarmed.
Thanks.
No idea how easy this would be. During my migration away from Z-wave I've been replacing the Z-wave devices with Sonoff which has broken some of my automations.
Any chance of a 'Test Reaction' function to call out which ones are broken because an entity no longer exists? Without actually running the reaction?
Or does this exist already and I'm just not aware of how to do it? Obviously I can see entities that are no longer available, but not quite what I'm looking for.
I guess it's something of an edge case so no huge issue.
TIA!

I'm sure this has been asked, and answered, but damned if I can figure it out
Use case: I have a rear garden with lights. A door from the kitchen into the garden and a door from the garage.
Currently if I open the kitchen door the lights come on (yay) and a 3 minute delay starts.
After 3 minutes, no matter what else happens, the lights go off (Boo! But also yay!)
What I would like is for the 3 minute delay until the lights go off to start from the latest door open event.
That is, if I'm going from kitchen to garage, and back again, the lights stay on until there's three minutes of no activity.
I've tried 'hacking' with a virtual switch, but can't seem to stop the delay.
Any pointers?
TIA

What does [Error] terminated [-] mean?
-
Post has been updated.
Need some guidance in determining what this error means.
Running Reactor latest-23078-d592d400; ZWaveJSController; Docker on Synology; Home Assistant 2023.3.6; Z-Wave JS UI 8.11.1
-
I have searched the site and could not find anything related to my question.
-
I know what the rule does. Yet, I cannot find the relationship with this error.
If someone could point me in the right direction, it would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Rule is as follow:
If the garage side door opens when the alarm is not armed and that both my spouse and I are at home:
-
Set Reaction: turn on the Siren_8 (basically a two seconds beep that was configured with the Aeotec Siren to warn us that the door is open)
-
Reset Reaction: turn off the Siren_8 in case it wants to keep beeping
Here's the updated error.

Please re-read the posting guidelines and fix your post. When posting log snippets, you are asked to post several dozen lines of context before any error message you are inquiring about.

OK, I see you edited the post. Is your question about the error message, or something else. You said you had a question, but you didn't state what the question is (i.e. described your expected behavior vs your observed behavior). Also, it would be helpful to know the name of the rule you have posted.

My question is about the error message. The name of the rule is : Notification: Home Security - Garage side door just opened (Disarmed Only).
My expectation is that there should not be an error.
The error seems to happen on the RESET of the rule and based on previous entries in the log, it should probably have read something like this, but that is just a guess.
<Engine:INFO> Enqueueing "Notification: Home Security - Garage side door just opened (Disarmed Only)<RESET>" (rule-lbmoup28:R) -
Reactor for Vera and Multi-hub Reactor both do this thing I call preemption of counter-activities, where (using MSR as the example) if the SET reaction needs to run, any running RESET reaction for the same rule is first stopped, and vice-versa. This prevents the two opposing reactions from fighting with one another for control of a device if one happens to still be running when the other needs to run.
The "terminated" message logged here is for RESET reaction of rule rule-lbmoup28, which is "Home Security - Garage side door just opened (Disarmed Only)" in the Notifications rule set. That reaction was started at 22:31:41.357Z in the log. The first action executes immediately. Just 11 seconds later at 22:31:52.486Z, the rule was re-evaluated because the door sensor changed state again, this time going to SET state, which would then start the counter-activity (SET reaction). The "terminated" message for the RESET reaction was logged because the reaction was still enqueued/running at that time.
The RESET reaction is pretty simple, so it may be that Home Assistant is having difficulty communicating reliably with the device. The 10-11 second gap between the start of the RESET reaction and its preemption by the SET reaction that followed is well within the timeout period (15 seconds) for HA to respond to HassController request to execute the action. The completion of the action occurred at 22:31:52.540Z, which is quite a long time for a simple action. The RESET reaction wasn't marked complete in that instant because the wait for completion is asynchronous, and there wasn't sufficient time for the executive to regain control and the reaction to be selected from the task queue (at which time it would have been marked complete and removed from the queue) -- the evaluation of the rule and change to SET had completed before HA responded to say it was finished.
On the plus side, the turn off action was completed, so the termination was benign, coming after the last action in the reaction.
On the minus side, it looks like you need to dig in and figure out why it took 11 seconds for HA to turn around one simple message with that siren. Assuming that's a ZWave device, you might look at the mesh performance and diagnostics in ZWaveJS UI.

Thanks Patrick. I clearly understand your explanation and I thank you for that. It makes sense and it explains what I was observing with my alarm system yesterday during my testings. I could see a lag when opening a door but never made the connection with what was in the log.
Today, I have started to exclude and re-include those door sensors w/o security to see if the response is better because I am thinking S2 security might be the reason of the lag.

S2 is a wrinkle and sore point for many manufacturers. But, the log isn't really pointing to the door sensors as the problem, it seems more likely from the log data that it's the siren. From personal experience with two popular brands, they are very battery-sensitive, and they need to have any firmware updates available installed. The battery issue with one brand is very interesting... if the batteries are around 60%, the operation of the siren at full volume appears to cause a significant enough battery drain that the device drops off the mesh briefly. It will keep wailing away uninterrupted, you just can't talk to it. As it is, the batteries last less than 60 days in my use, which basically amounts to a simple chime that repeats once every 5 minutes while either garage door is open (so maybe just 4-5 chimes on an average day for us). That's ridiculous. So far, I haven't found a Z-Wave siren I like, and most of my notifications are by Pushover and through Sonos.

Thanks @toggledbits
Quick update. I have excluded and re-included about 12 S2 devices to no security. I do not have a tool to measure the response time for my alarm system (door sensors, motion, scene controller, and siren), for example, but from I have seen today (tomorrow is another day), response is almost immediate. S2 the issue?
My only problem right now is pairing two Zooz ZSE41 sensors. One of them being the garage side door sensor. On the latter, at your suggestion, I noticed this in Z-Wave JS UI which may explained to lag.
Those sensors simply won't pair anymore even after factory reset. I am in discussion with Zooz support.
BTW my Aeotec Siren 6 works on AC (plus a battery as back-up).

I finally found the problem after a lot of troubleshooting. Patrick guided me to possibly an issue with the Siren but couldn't figure out, until, I realized that the 2-second tone duration I configured for siren 8 was likely the reason I saw those errors.
If you look at my original screenshot, I was turning off the siren under the Reset Reaction but the siren had already stopped beeping under the Set Reaction. At least I like to believe it did since it only lasted 2 seconds.
All I did is remove the Reset Reaction. See below. That did the trick for me. No more "Terminated" errors.
