How to clean up etcd state

To flush the etcd state from a node, you can use talm or talosctl with the following commands:

Replace nodeN with the name of the failed node, for instance, node0.yaml:

talm reset -f nodes/nodeN.yaml --system-labels-to-wipe=EPHEMERAL --graceful=false --reboot

talosctl reset --system-labels-to-wipe=EPHEMERAL --graceful=false --reboot

⚠️ This command will remove the state from the specified node. Use it with caution.
