Some quick responses. I’m doing triage on the forum right now so apologize if I’m saying something someone has already said.
The OH 2 binding I do not believe supports the Security command class yet. However, the 1.9 version binding does and you can install any 1.x version binding in OH 2.
There are no integration examples for specific zwave devices for the most part. There are thousands of them and creating a separate tutorial for each would be untenable. However, you really don’t need one. Assuming the device is in the zwave database for the binding it will show up in your inbox as one or more new Things. Accept the Thing(s) from the inbox and then in PaperUI under Configuration, you can browse to these new Things. The Thing page will show all of the supported channels the Thing supports. You then link an Item to one of those Channels and you are good to go.
There are some side things that you may need to do. For example, if it is a battery powered device you may need to wake it up several times for the binding to figure out what it is. If it is not part of the database, you may need to request it be added or add it yourself.

For the most part, you are not going to find a lot of specific tutorials like this and number 2. Instead, you will find more generic tutorials, for example, one on how to send an email and another for how to connect to a DSC alarm. It is up to you to combine them to provide your end solution. Everyone’s home automation requirements and setups are unique. Specific tutorials are not always tenable.

True. If the Envisalink only supports one connection at a time only one of the hubs can connect to it at a time.
There are literally hundreds of thousands if not millions of “known good integration” combinations. Documenting them all is simply not feasible. [quote=“avgjoe, post:14, topic:5004”]
That link seems to be a hodgepodge of different products and issues.

That link is specific to the zwave binding. If you want to use the Vera as your zwave controller that link is irrelevant. As is your question for 2. as OH will not be integrating with zwave directly at all. You will use the MIOS binding.
The OH documentation is focused on documenting HOW to integrate specific technologies with OH. Not what specific technologies are. We are having a hard enough time keeping up with just documenting core OH 2, we will never be able to become a one-stop source for information on all the technologies it supports.
That being said, Pushover, like Pushbullet, NotifyMyAndroid, and others are push notification services that let you “push” notifications to your devices.
The instructions for how to integrate and use these services are located in the individual readme for the add-on. For example, here is the docs for Pushover. But be aware that the plug-ins assume a certain level of understanding of OH. I recommend going through the OH 2 Beginner’s Tutorial to pick up some basic knowledge about how OH works.[quote=“avgjoe, post:18, topic:5004”]
The last line of one thread says MIOS binding is only for OH1, I installed OH2 thinking the latest version would be best to start with. If I go back to OH1 (ugh), would that fully work with schlage locks?

You can install any 1.x version binding on OH 2. For bindings like the zwave binding where there is a 1.9 and 2.x version you need to enable “Show Legacy add-ons” (or something like that) in the PaperUI Configurations so it will list both.
But, since you want to use the Vera as your zwave controller, that thread is irrelevant. You want to look at the MIOS. Pay particular attention to the Examples for Co-existing.
