I did all that. It went well. What about the guid issue? Can I use the same
server name even if it uses the same guid?

Once the DC is removed that GUID is no longer in use.

DCs use the SID of the Domain and the GUID doesn't
seem to matter (always?) if the old DC is removed physically
and another is installed with the same name.

But it isn't an issue if you deleted the old DCs references.
