How do you identify a ghost node?

Good Morning...and Happy New Year to all.
This is a "just wondering" question.
I've seen a lot of posts about force removing devices and ghost nodes. I'm sadly one of the people that have in the past simply removed devices then completed a force remove rather than un-pairing....i know the difference now.
All of the posts i've seen however are about removing the devices...i'd like to know how to identify a ghost node...if i have any.
I have a c5 running 2.2.4.128 firmware.

Thanks
Mac

In Z-Wave Details, any ghost nodes will be the ones without any in and out data under Clusters.

Thanks for that.

I believe i have data in the cluster column for all the devices.
Hopefully this isn't an issue for me then!

Cheers

Yes ...I don't see any node that looks like it would be a ghost node....you are good to go.

Will chalk it up to luck!

Most ghost nodes are created by either incomplete pairings or removing a device without excluding it first.
