Thanks for the suggestions everyone. First up, no, this is not part of a
Gluster HCI.
Secondly, "Confirm Host has been rebooted" seems to require the host have a
status of "Non operational", "Maintenance" or "Connecting"
from the error
pop up.
Ah, as I'm writing this, I shut down the host and now the status changes to
Non-responsive and lets me put it in maintenance so I can remove it. So it
looks like the change in config causes the engine to not be able to
communicate with the host. Is that a bug or expected? What should my
workflow have been here after reinstalling the node?
Thanks, Shareef.

Did any of you try to "Confirm 'Host has been rebooted'"? Did this
help?
