Multiple Z-Wave controllers on one network?
Main Post:
Does anyone know if it is possible to connect multiple Z-Wave controllers to one network? I am attempting to run Homebridge and Home Assistant on the same network. I need to control the Z-Wave accessories as they were HomeKit and run HA at the same time. Anyone know if this is possible, and if so, how would I go about it? TIA

Why do you need two zwave controllers? Can’t you connect all devices to the zwave controller that is connected to HA, and then expose some/all of those devices to HomeKit via HA’s HomeKit integration?

Lessons Learned from Z-wave 1.4 to Z-wave JS; network key "null"
Main Post:
Migrated from legacy z-wave 1.4 to the Z-wave JS integration this morning. Took longer than I would have liked, but I think that's mostly cause I didn't have a z wave network key in my 1.4 config.
Looking in my core entities file, the network key was simply 'null'. Moving to JS, I entered a network key during setup (fixing the error). This seemed to have the effect of causing any security related z-wave device (motion sensors, door/window sensors) to get into some state where it would show up in the z-wave logs (in the add-on), but no entities would make it into HA. So HA Devices would show Node 45, but unknown manufacturer and no associated entities.
For all of those nodes, I had to exclude the physical device from the network and re-add them. Then they popped up as expected.
Posting in the hopes that it helps others with a similar problem.
The recommendation to 'delete and re-add' the z-wave JS integration until all your devices show up did not work for me.
Top Comment: And....any differences of note? Response time? My setup is working fine as-is so hesitant to switch over until it's a little more mature (and hoping for a one-key migration)

It is not down despite what these people say. Zlib is not going to go away.

Replacing it for an entirely different device? Tf?
Top Comment: This explains so much. Lately I've been having just no data or even phone in the middle of town. Thanks for sharing, they better fix this soon it's so freaking annoying.

z-wave JS failed to connect... macvlan
Main Post:
I can't add the integration, asks for server address like ws://localhost:3000.
Then Failed to connect.
Searched google ofc, some said adding IP of home assistant helps
Tried adding actual IP address of homeassistant. IE 192.168.3.50 (it has it's own IP)
Running ontop of unraid macvlan driver network on unraid, There is no port association.
yet z-wave JS can't connect for some reason?
I tried adding more normal docker network to it, and setting up assignments and everything paniced as that's a different vlan and so many devices does not support subnet routing.. but the integration does not work still.
[31m2021-02-07 22:43:27 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.zwave_js.config_flow] Failed to connect to Z-Wave JS server: Cannot connect to host localhost:3000 ssl:default [Connect call failed ('127.0.0.1', 3000)][0m .
Top Comment: I struggled with that too. Replace this: ws://localhost:3000 with this: ws://a0d7b954-zwavejs2mqtt:3000
Zwave Network Map/Diagram?
Main Post:
Hi Everyone,
I searched, but was unable to find the answer. I'm using SmartThings as my Z-wave hub. I think it would be interesting to view how the devices are connected. Is there a tool that works to see the network map? I'm using a Mac and iOS devices, if that helps.
Thanks in advance,
Sean

Most likely not too helpful, but home assistant has an add-on that adds this feature
