3. Drain the node to remove running pods from it. 
$ oc adm <node name> --ignore-daemonsets --delete-emptydir-data --force
For example: oc adm drain c3-esx01.racka01.local --ignore-daemonsets --delete-emptydir-data --force

4. Set debug mode and reboot the node. 
$ oc debug node/<node name>

$ sh-4.4# chroot /host

$ sh-4.4# systemctl reboot

5. Once node is ready post reboot, mark it as schedulable. 
$ oc adm uncordon <node name>

6. Verify the node is successfully marked as schedulable. 
$ oc get node
