Ok, Awhile back before MS EOL'd Windows XP I built new PH 
 Server. Windows 7, installed to c:\powerhome, applied the 
 2.1.4 I2CS patch, & disabled UAC. Everything seemed fine.
 
 Later I brought one of my old remotelinc's back into 
 service and created a couple links and noticed the PLM 
 links always stayed Flagged Create. Nothing I did would 
 make it change to verified. Clear Failed, Coms, disabled, 
 enabled. Everything works fine with the remote. I just 
 wrote it off as something with the remotelinc.
 
 Now, My PLM died and I got replacement. I did the replace 
 address process, it deleted links and recreated without a 
 single nak. Everything works fine... however now every 
 PLM link shows "flagged create".  Now, i'm thinking 
 something is corrupt in my db.
 
 Anyone have any thoughts? I see 2.1.5 is moving along. 
 I'm thinking I probably should get this resolved before I 
 upgrade to that when its available.
 Thanks guys.
 
 Lenny

Lenny,
 
 Try running the two SQL commands in my post here:  http://www.power-home.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3230&PN= 2&get=last.  That should clear it up.
 
 Let me know,
 
 Dave.

That took care of it Dave. Thanks so much. Look forward to 
 the next release.

Well, I thought I was OK. All my pending links are fine 
 now however I'm sure my NEW PLM is i2cs and is causing 
 powerhome not to update the status. All my other devices 
 are older.
 
 I have cleared the PLM and done an Add Full. To be honest 
 I don't totally understand how this is used by the PLM or 
 powerhome.
 
 From what I have read in other posts the new protocol 
 requires a link to the PLM.
 
 I have 3 PLM groups that every device are members. 
 Downstairs, Upstairs & ALL Lights. Each switch is a 
 member of of 2 of the 3 groups. Maybe this isn't 
 considered a link in the i2cs protocol.
 
 From PH, I can control the light on and off with no 
 problem. But the status doesn't update when I use the 
 physical switch.
 
 As a test I created a link on a switch with the PLM as a 
 responder. Tested the switch and PH didn't see the status 
 change. I then did Clear PLM and Add Full and now the 
 status updates.
 
 So, I guess I have a few questions.
 1 - Whenever I make any link changes should I clear the 
 PLM and ADD FULL?
 
 2 - What link is required for Powerhome to see the status 
 change?
 
 3 - Buttons and Groups when linking still kind of confuse 
 me. I put Insteon in my entire house when I bought it in 
 2006 and have 450+ links, I should know by now. In the 
 attached screenshot, looking at the garage_keypad, the 
 2nd link. The group 2 in orange refers to the 2nd button 
 in the MediaRM keypad and Button 4 in yellow refers to 
 the 4th button in the garage_keypad. The first link is 
 part of the same "scene" so, the group 1, refers to the 
 basement light switch and button 4 refers to the same 
 button 4 on the garage_keypad... This is the way I have 
 always interpreted it. Is their any easier way to think 
 about this? It's rare I make any changes so when I do, I 
 have to stop and wake my brain up again.
 
  
 
 Sorry, Chrome didn't upload the image... IE worked.
 Thanks again guys!
