We have one server in the cluster that was originally setup with a software raid (I know, not supported). I finally got the ok to purchase and install an actual raid card (Perc H710 ).

My question is, since I will most likely have to rebuild this server, what steps are needed to bring the node back up on the cluster (I have backed up my var/lib/pve-cluster and etc directories)? Has anyone had to restore or rebuild a cluster node that can offer me some advice? This is a production environment, and while I have moved all the VM's to other nodes, I do not want to break or bring down the cluster.

I should add this node is also part of a 2 node drbd cluster, but I can easily reconfigure that.
