Migrating RaspberryPI2+Razberry -> RaspberryPI3+Razberry2

Post by hp1 »

I just picked up a razberry 2 and a raspberry PI 3 so that I have a spare in the event that my current and stable setup breaks. I also wanted a test environment where I could play around developing modules without impacting my home setup.

My current setup is 2.0.0, and I'd be installing 2.3.0 when it is released. Is it just as simple as backing up the configuration on the RPI2/Raz1, shutting it down, and then importing it into the RPI3/Raz2?

You will need to update routes on the new RaZ2 (better few times)

Thanks PoltosS,

I see there is a way to add a controller to an existing zwave network? Can I add the razberry2 2.3.0 setup to my existing network so it sees the devices? That way I have a primary and secondary in the event of an SDcard failure? Any risks or issues with having two controllers in a setup?

This would allow me a development and prod setup, since I can play around with the razberry1 without impacting the razberry2.

Yes, you can add many controllers.
