Z-Wave Stick Migration (via Z-Wave "Controller Shift" feature)

So for those of us with Linux systems (can’t use Zensys tools), is the following procedure still the only one available to us?

  1. Capture thing configuration information
  2. Exclude all devices
  3. Include all devices with Gen5 Zstick
  4. Plug in Gen5 Zstick to USB and assign to Node 1 (not sure how to do that)
  5. Re-enter configuration information for each thing (and item?)

I’ve seen Rule for deleting and rediscovering Things , though with only 13 devices, I’d rather not take the chance of really munging things up due to my limited OpenHab skills.
