I've got a Proxmox node I'm declaring "failed"

Its got LVM issues and today, it no longer connects over the network (tried a known working config, and multiple NICs, seems it just didn't come back up after a reboot).

Based on its sorry state, and the fact its been continually updated & upgraded since 4.4, I'm thinking of just blowing it away and starting fresh.

I've seen guides on how to do this, but none that have the node as part of a Ceph cluster.

The OSDs are intact.

My question is this,

Can i just proceed as normal, re-attach the OSDs and rejoin the cluster and Ceph will figure the rest out?
