Suddenly all my Z-Wave Devices are Missing

Aloha. I was just watching TV when I asked Alexa to turn off the lights. Nothing happened so I went down the troubleshooting list starting with a firmware update of the Hubitat. I then rebooted the router. Nothing. I then restored a previous backup to the Hubitat from a week ago. Nothing. The Z-wave device details page is empty. I tried a repair, but nothing happened. Is this a trick to get me to upgrade to the C-8? If so, it's not working :-/

I did find this in the logs:
zwaveCrashed Z-Wave is unresponsive zwaveCrashed SYSTEM 2023-03-17 01:30:00.788 PM HST

I tried including a Z-Wave device, but nothing showed up. Did the Z-wave chip in the Hubitat die?
Help!

Platform version:
2.3.5.113
Hardware version:
Rev C-7

Did 2.3.5.113 exist a week ago?

2.3.5.113 just came out. When I ran the restore it said it would not change the firmware, just the DB. I was on the most previous firmware version prior to this one.

This sounds like a ZWave radio problem.

Do a Shutdown, then cycle the actual power. The Z-Radios are NOT affected by a reboot. (Upgrades just reboot.)

Ahh, I did not know that - thanks. I will try when I'm back in about an hour.

I've read: "All my ZWave devices are gone" enough times that I try and be quick to offer this, before anyone tries something that will make it worse.
