[ Home Assistant ] [ 2021.5.5 ] Open-source home automation platform

updated x64 version

may not support upgrade

Mine upgrades whenever I go through a stop/start cycle.

Why don't you choose a docker installation instead?
In my opinion it's a much better setup where you rely directly on the work in the open source group.

I had a very bad experience with container station, and had to reinstall QTS from scratch several times because of it. So I've got rid of CS and prefer to rely on Stephane's qpkg's. If/when he decides to stop updating them I will consider alternatives, being CS one of them.

Is it possible to upgrade HA to 0.108.5 ? Upgrade from 0.106.3 is fails due to ciso8601 not updating.

Same here, trying to update to latest version, fails on ciso8601. Would love an update to the latest version.

I have absolutely no problems updating HA in Docker. I'm now on 0.109.6

Hi,
First I am total newbie so don't be cruel.
I managed to install the package after trying with container station-HA and it seems i cannot have access to add-ons. How can i get that on my qnap ts-251A ?

Add-ons are only supported in the “HASSOS” version. The only way to install that on QNAP is to use the “VM image” of the application and install in VS.

You may not be real happy with the performance of a VM on your TS-251A.

Better option for you would be to get something like a Rpi 4b (2-4GB) and with a decent SD card and run Hassio that way. I did that for quite a while before moving to the VM option.

Thank you for your quick reply.
Even if i have 4Gb version on QNAP and not doing much on it (backups and torrents) will be moving slo that VM ?

It is hard to find much in terms of benchmarks that apply to both, so the only one I could quickly find was the Octane benchmark. Both the Intel N3060 (TS-251a cpu) and RPi 4b scored around 8800 on Octane. But you also have to remember that for the RPi 4b,100% of the CPU/etc. will be going to running HA. In your TS-251a, you have some of your CPU/Memory going to the NAS functions itself, as well as a % of overhead for VS itself. So just those 2 factors alone will reduce your performance from a CPU/Memory point of view.

From a storage perspective, you can get better durability and throughput on the NAS, but there are more and more options starting to come out for using say USB 3.x SSD's on the Rpi 4b. So that gap is getting closed. Other option is to offload most logging/data to the NAS via using things like mysql/mariadb/influxdb, etc. via container station and then pointing your HA config to leverage those.

Setup automated Google configuration backup, and even if your SD card goes on the Rpi4b, your historical data is on your nas then, and your config is up in google for download/restore back onto a new card.

If you had a beefier QNAP I would probably say use the QNAP, but on an entry level one, I would probably go with 4b. Other drawback of QNAP, when you reboot the NAS (Fw update, etc.) HA goes offline since VS is down.

Thank you. Probably getting an Rpi3 in weekend to see how is done.
Untill then I have an error with a fresh install of home assistant when i try to connect with my smartphone. Nothing installed/modified. Just container station and home assistant installed.

Best bet is to search for solutions in the home assistant community forums.
