Is the config stored on the dongle or on a file?

[gcannar]

Hi there,

I' m using zigbee2mqtt with Domoticz but wanna give a try to HA on another sd card. The question is, installin and configuring all the device on the new OS will brick the config?
After try HA can i put back my old SD with domotcz and all will be back safe?
I mean...the pairing and all the config are stored on the dongle itself so install and pairing new devices under a new OS will cause problem reverting back?

Thanks, G.

Zigbee2mqtt is connected to MQTT only, so you install HA with MQTT integration, enable HA MQTT discovery support in Z2M and devices will be there.

You only need to re-pair, if you use an integration that is accessing coordinator hardware directly, like ZHA or deCONZ.

Copy of database and configuration should be sufficient, if you use the same coordinator device.

But don’t blame me ...
