I’m pretty new to HA. I’ve set it up and I keep editing the confirmation and everytime I restart to apply the changes, all the switches, sensors and even the thermostat lose their values. The most annoying is the thermostat (classic thermostat entity) because I have to turn it on selecting heat/cool and set the temperature. Is there a way to keep all these values across restarts?
Edit: I’m using HA OS on Proxmox. All the sensors and switches slowly goes back to “normal” as soon as they publish their state, apart from some entities that have values provided by HA itself and not by the devices (like the thermostat).
I’m using HA OS on Proxmox. About the configuration, what do you need to know? Do you wanna see it all? All the sensors and switches slowly goes back to “normal” as soon as they publish their state.
HA OS on its own doesn’t behave that way, so that leaves Proxmox or perhaps your specific hardware. Can’t help you though. Haven’t tried HA in any kind of virtual environment.
Indon’t think that the problem can come from Proxmox/HW since it happens everytime I restart the services, not the VM. So strange…
Perhaps so, but I’ve run HA on a Raspberry Pi under Raspberry OS, HA OS on that Pi, and HA Supervisor on a PC using Debian and am currently running it on a PC under Linux Mint. All of these worked with little or no delay between HA start and device status updates.
Since the updates comes from the devices and ate not requested from HA, some exposes their statuses in less than a minute, some (like temperature sensors that are battery powered) sends their statuses very less frequently (if the temperature doesn’t change, they communicate every 30/40 minutes.
