I guess you mean “Node xyz is unreachable”? Right?

If the UBS states **Unknown** in the column **Route** (as shown in the screenshot) , then the USB lost the Z-Wave connection.

If the UBS lost the connection, then it wouldn’t be possible anyway.  
I guess “Configure node now” on Vera is something similar like “Test” or “Heal” in Homey developer, but I’m not sure.

A few suggestions:  
– If the connection is still ok, then restart the Fibaro app.  
– Update the firmware of the UBS (only possible with a Fibaro gateway, and you need to re-include the UBS again)  
– Restart Homey  
– [PTP](https://community.homey.app/t/how-to-ptp/17304)  
– Powercycle UBS
