Yes, you can clear the old one afterwards.
Don't forget to remove the cephx key with 'ceph auth del' of that MDS afterwards.

I looked at the documentation, figuring I could remove the current metadata server and add the new one, but the remove metadata server section just says "Coming soon...". The same page also has a warning about running multiple metadata servers. So am I stuck?
