Best way to migrate from Z-Stick S2 to Gen5?

Hello,

I have a Z-Stick Gen5 arriving tomorrow and need to move my network over to it. What’s the best way to do this? I know I need to use the old Z-Stick S2 to remove each node from the network, then add them again using the Gen5. I will then need to edit my items files to match the new node IDs.

What about the node XML files maintained by the binding? Should I delete all of these before starting OpenHAB again?

Anything else I should do before starting OpenHAB again with the new stick online?

Any thoughts on this before I start? :smiley:

Looks like this is the best way, and you don’t have to rejoin nodes.
