I have not noticed such a problem. Does the problem occur in the smartthings application or in ihost? This happens after an internet outage. or a power outage. ---

> [@ociepa.ekotox](#): > > This happens after an internet outage. or a power outage. More especially after power outage, as after a re-boot. Logically all virtual devices are initially offline, as seen on the web UI of the iHost. Temperature sensors, contact sensors, a light, a button, all recover on operation but virtual ‘switches’ no. I have to use the inject node, even sometimes modify the Device Initial State, ‘on’ to ‘off’, then back again, to re-inject before they come back online. Tagging @ward ---

Hello. Please tell me, why and how do you use these virtual devices? I read it, but I didn’t understand it. Google can’t always convey the meaning of what is written. ---

Hi, thanks for the follow-up. > [@ward](#): > > Hey, is this an issue that happens on every outage? For virtual switch devices created on Node-Red? Yes. As I commented above I think probably it’s more after a power outage, or a reboot. I’ve sent you the Node-red flow that creates it by DM so maybe someone in the team could check there’s no configuration error. ---
