Dear all, especially VRM users, As you have noticed, VRM is not behaving to its usual performance. In this central thread, I would like to shed some light on the situation and give you updates. Hopefully soon, I can update the post-mortem of what happened and how we solved it soon. Influx database…

You truly have something to be proud of — it’s a brilliant, versatile platform that would make your competitors green with envy! Everyone runs into problems now and then, but there’s no such thing as an unsolvable issue.

This is now live and we see the positive impact of it on page loads. It only helps for graphs and dashboard that h…

Just to confirm from my setup I use Node Red on OS large, my flow failed last night as I have consumption and PV forecast nodes which were showing a request time out error. It is now back up and running.. :blush: Thanks

I have no data at all on my App. This can not happen at all, I don’t care what’s wrong. I need to know the status of my system ASAP and at any time I need/want to know. No data means no alarms. Luckily it is not winter but today it is raining and I need to control my off-grid Victron system.
