"reset limits" doesn't work with one switch

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with the "reset limits" function: On a device with many sensors (305) I can't recalculate the limits using "reset limits" in the device-preferences.
Normally a note with the message appears: "Reset limits for Current sensor foo"; they will be recalculated on the next discovery run."
But with this device this message does not appear. Of course I don't know if it has to do with the number of sensors but it is the only device where the problem occurs.
Can I reset the limit values directly via the database?
Thanks! Helge

Hmm, sounds like something doesn't like the large number of sensors somewhere.
You can do it manually by setting the thresholds to NULL in the database.
UPDATE `sensors` SET `sensor_limit` = NULL, `sensor_limit_low` = NULL, `sensor_warn` = NULL, `sensor_limit_low_warn` = NULL WHERE `device_id` = '<DEVICE_ID>';
Adam.

Check your PHP config for
max_input_vars post_max_size and some similar ones, especially if you are using suhosin.
