2 servers 2 zwave sticks with same NVM

The short question is. If I have two servers each with a zwave stick and NVM backup and zwavejs docker container configured (and their storage synched) and only run one of the containers at a time - will this work? Or does the radio stay on regardless of whether zwavejs is running? Running both at the same time would be a disaster I think and will not do this? In other words does stopping zwavejs turn the stick off from a zwave network perspective.

I’m asking because, I’m am going to be migrating my zwavejs-ui container from a Synology 6.x NAS to a Synology 7.x NAS. I’m aware that there are USB driver issues on 7.x, hence I want to test the network on 7.x with easy ability to fall back to 6.x. My current NAS is also old, so due for a refresh.

So rather than pulling the stick out and swapping it between computers. I’d just leave the sticks plugged in. I often have to reboot the NAS after pulling the stick to get it running on TTYACM0, Synology does not have the by dev id for usb.

No, if the stick has power it’s still running.
