FWIW, I’m still SO blahed that there is no migration for V1 owners, and not even a commitment for migration capabilities for V2 owners. If, after going through all the necessary pain there would be to manually move v1 to v2, I could at least be guaranteed I’d never have to do it again 1) if my V2 hub broke, or 20 a V3 hub came out, I’d do it anyway.
@slagle or someone else, is there any migration type that is being worked on? Like at least from one v2 to a replacement v2 hub?
I read that article stating that V1 to V2 wasn’t happening. What the article didn’t state explicitly was whether V2 to V2 (when a hub goes bad), or V2 to Vnext was going to happen. Knowing that I’d only have to manually move to V2 would be bearable if I knew it was that last time I’d have to do it. @slagle?
Assuming one eventually sees the light of day, there is no way I will buy a v3 hub unless there is a migration utility available on release. I’m not going to manually migrate 120+ devices (and probably more whenever the next hub is released). If an unfocused and scatter-brained company like Wink can do it, ST can do it and better IMO. I really, really love ST so far and I do hope a v3 is released and has some great new features, but they have to come through on a few promises that they have yet to fulfill on v2 before I would buy another hub.
Don’t plan on it happening. Even if they say it will happen, what history do you have that says you should believe them.
I would be concerned about my many devices but also my 200ish CoRE automations.
The only thing that would attract me to a V3 hub would be local execution of CoRE and all devices.
No interest in Bluetooth.
Exactly. I tend to believe a v3 is in the works, but I won’t settle for a “we’ll have a migration tool within 6 months of release” or something like that. They have to have it on day 1 and they also have to come through with total local control for me to bite.
There is zero chance if my hub broke or a V3 Hub came out I would buy another SmartThings hub without a migration utility already in place.
I’d have no choice. We don’t remember how to turn on the lights.
Are you trying to create an infinite vortex that will lead to the destruction of the Universe? 
Be careful what you wish for! 
The details are here. 
I don’t think I have much choices. I have more devices than most people but if my V2 crapped out. There’s no way that I am going to move to Wink or Vera and have half my devices not working. Yeah, it’s crap but not the end of the world.
