Knx Covers loose their Labels when knx Router is offline during a Power loss.

The problem

I love Labels ans use them to Decide which Covers should be close in the evening. Yesterday, the knx Router got offline and so my Devices got unavailable for a short time the Problem for me is that all Labels are lost. No Cover moved down this evening.

Hi 👋! I can't reproduce this on my local test setup. @pos-ei-don can you provide steps how to reproduce this issue?

Also, I think from an integration point of view there is nothing to do regarding labels, is there @joostlek ?

[joostlek]

I would think only when an entity gets removed and added again I would think it would remove labels

[farmio]

Yeah, this is stored in entity registry, so since we use unique_id in knx entities it should be fine.

Please make sure to update to the latest Home Assistant version and check if that solves the issue. Let us know if that works for you by adding a comment 👍 This issue has now been marked as stale and will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

It seems that sometimes the interna unique-id gets lost. Sometimes, after a reboot, a Single entity gets recreated with _2 suffix. I think, this is the time when attributes and Labels get lost.

Have a look at https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/knx/#duplicate-entities

[pos-ei-don]

I know that, and I had no change made as I was not at home. I just rebootet. But i think, this automatic calculation is not a good idea, at least it should be possible to overwrite this. At least this is the idea behind HA unique_id as I understand it. IT should be possible to change Group-Adresse without loosing al statistics and history data and without the need to Update all automationa.

I'd be happy to see a proposal for a better idea 😃

Statistics and history data are entity_id bound, not unique_id bound. You can change that in the more info dialog of the entity.
