Have brand new ioBroker installation on Windows 7 PC. Windows updated to the latest. All required adapters are installed except Z-Wave, see installation log attached. Thank you.

„First of all, Implementation is tested only on ARM Linux (e.g. Raspberry Pi (2)). You need a fully Development Environment (gcc, make,...)“

Itˋs probably easier to add a Raspberry Pi as a slave ioBroker system and insert your zwave hardware there.

@Stabilostick Actually, due to RAM limitation, I was moving from Raspberry to PC, but I dropped an idea to use Windows and loaded Mint Linux on small low power cube PC that I had. Was able to install everything including Z-Wave adapter, now trying to get PC to recognize my Z-Wave stick - no success yet, also wondering if this is because of X86 architecture. I guess next step would be Orange... or figure out why my Raspberry started responding very slow when I initiate Float charting. Thanks anyway

ioBroker is supporting multihost. So you can keep the main part of your ioBroker on a powerful x86 platform, including Windows.
If the Z-Wave adapter does not support x86 architectures you can use a Raspi or Orange Pi (Plus 2e) just for the Z-wave Adapter and dedicated to this adapter. This makes sense. For Z-Wave you need a transceiver module with an antenna. And this should be located in a central position, most probably within your living area. Mostly it is easier to hide a single board computer than a server-like computer.
I am not familiar with Z-Wave. I am using Homematic and have a similar architecture. Homematic is running on a Orange Pi with its RF transceiver module located in the living area. My ioBroker "server" is located elsewhere.
Currently my ioBroker server is a different Orange Pi Plus 2e which works fine. But I am planning a migration of ioBroker to a more powerful notebook using Windows. I want to test influxDB and therefore I prefer to have a more powerful platform.

@klassisch Thanks, multihosting could be a good idea. I have currently Raspberry with Z-Wave and mySensors, all work fine, but when I added Flot and History for charting, system became barely responsive. This is what triggered moving the whole thing to a more powerful platform. I have small cube 4GB i5 PC handy, have Linux Mint installed and ioBroker. May be I will use it for Flot and History only. How difficult is to setup multihosting?
