Noticed that boot SSD on one of the older nodes in the cluster is at 60% wear! Decided to do some proactive maintenance, replace it with a pair of SSD's and reinstall with mirrored boot zfs.

Can I safely reuse the node name and IP? (vnb/192.168.5.240). From memory that used to be an issue with PX 4.x, but its ok now? any prep that needs to be done?

Node is still running, so I could easily remove it from the cluster first.
