No solar production and PVDR has green light

Hello, I have a sun power solar + battery system. I woke the morning of 7/5 to all my 29 panels with enphase micro inverters no longer producing power. The sunvault 26-2 is using Schneider Electric inverters are working doing a short self supply test; currently in reserve. I have checked all breakers for grid and solar breakers none appeared tripped. Opening up behind the PVS6 panel the PVDR has a green light instead of the normal red light.

I live in the Palm Springs, CA area.

DataSource for SunStrong App

I own my system. It is not financed.

Not keen on paying SunStrong $99/year for detailed monitoring that I used to get for free.

So, CoPilot is telling me that the SunStrong MAY be getting it's data from Enphase Enlighten and that in theory I could "register" and actually see my solar array information at https://enlighten.enphaseenergy.com

Any tried this path and been successful?

I am skeptical. IIRC, I have a PSV6 box. My guess is that SunStrong is pulling data from SunPower's back end (or whoever owns it these days) and not Enphase. I still get monthly reports from SunPower email address.

CoPilot is also telling me

  1. If my system has an Envoy, SunPower can transfer ownership to Enlighten
  2. If my system does not have an Envoy, I can't use enlighten unless I install the $1000 Enphase gateway?
    1. I do not see any Envoy details for my system in the SunStrong app
    2. I do not see anything next to my PSV that appears to indicate an Envoy
