pve_ceph_mds_destroy
Remove a Ceph Metadata Server (MDS) daemon. Dry-run returns a plan; confirm executes the deletion.
Instructions
MUTATION: destroy a Ceph Metadata Server.
RISK_HIGH: any CephFS rank it was actively serving fails over to a standby if one exists, else that filesystem's metadata becomes unavailable. cmd-safety ADVISORY citation (action=destroy, service=mds) is included in the plan's blast_radius — fail-open, never a gate. CAPTURE-or-declare: reads the current MDS list before planning; if unreadable -> complete=False. Dry-run by default (returns a PLAN); confirm=True executes (DELETE /nodes/{node}/ceph/mds/{name}) and returns {"status": "submitted", "result": }. No rollback primitive on this plane — recreate with pve_ceph_mds_create (a NEW daemon, not a byte-for-byte restore).
Input Schema

| name | Yes | ID (name) of the MDS to destroy. | |
| node | No | PVE node the MDS is on; defaults to the configured node if omitted. | |
| confirm | No | False (default) returns a dry-run PLAN only; True executes the destroy. | |
| proximo_target | No | Which configured Proxmox target to run this call against — a target name from your multi-target config (a specific PVE/PBS/PMG/PDM box). Omit to use the single/default target from the environment; the selection applies only to this call. |
