I have a situation that started yesterday. It has become quite maddening. I have 3 switches that are turning ON every hour. See snip of events from Hubitat for 1 of them:
I have looked at every rule I can think of and cannot figure out what is triggering these lights. Is there a way in SharpTools to see what rules are associated with these devices? I would think it would be easy to figure out based on them being turned on every hour… 2:10, 3:10. 4:10, etc.
EDIT: I think I figured it out. My evening lighting rule “SHOULD” trigger 30 minutes before Sunset. It looks like it is triggering every hour. Obviously that time can only happen once every day. What’s going on here???
Some of the timer / scheduled rule triggers have retry functionality if the rule execution fails. I suspect it’s hitting that failure and the scheduler treats the execution as a failure that needs retry. I’m out on vacation at the moment so I’m not by my computer to verify.
I think I may have figured it out, but maybe you can confirm my logic.
It started yesterday. Also yesterday I swapped out a wall switch that seemingly was damaged by a power outtage. I updated all my rules that had that switch in it, or at least so I thought. That switch did not get updated in this 30 minutes before Sunset rule which I expect is/was causing the error above. It is now updated. So reading your response, could that missing device in the rule cause the rule to retry every hour even though it would not be 30 minutes before Sunset anymore?
We’ll see what happens in 3 minutes (9:10 PM)
EDIT: 9:15 and no lights triggered. Must’ve been it!
