Removing NODE from CLUSTER

If someone deleted the /etc/pve/nodes/YYYY folder? (ie intention to remove itself from cluster when it was the ONLY device in cluster)

I did this and it took the proxmox server, effectively offline. The GUI will not load, cannot reach it via SSH (it is on the network). Looking at another unrelated server, the only files of importance appears to be the pve-ssk.key & PEM file.

I rebooted the box, no change. Will this constitute a reload of the OS? and a firm kick in the rear for myself?

Bash:
systemctl stop pve-cluster
systemctl stop corosync
pmxcfs -l
rm /etc/pve/corosync.conf
rm -r /etc/corosync/*
rm /var/lib/corosync/*
killall pmxcfs
systemctl start pve-cluster
pvecm updatecerts -f
