I have setup my adaptec 71605 with a raid 10 with the controller and then installed proxmox 7.2. It see's me drives no problem. I have done many installed with proxmox and love it. I like to setup a Windows vm and run the storage manager to view it and mange with on windows vm. I have done the adapter 9260 with megaraid monitor and it works great. But can't see to get the right way to make this one work. Please help some one. I have downloaded lots of drivers no luck yet.

ok it turns out the the linux driver for the asr-8805 will work with this nothing on the 71605 drivers would work. Got this from the dmox member post this is what he wrote on link https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/maxview-storage-manager-with-proxmox.51819/ I only installed the deb and that was it. Then I installed the windows maxview storage manager version on the VM and it works fine. Thank you so much dmox I took a chance that it would work and it did. Btw the driver I downloaded was maxView Storage Manager v3.07.23850 for Linux x64 from link https://storage.microsemi.com/en-us/speed/raid/storage_manager/msm_linux_x64_v3_07_23850_tgz.php

So sum it up: I installed maxView Storage Manager directly on my Proxmox VE host. Therefore I downloaded the latest version for linux from the Microsemi website: https://storage.microsemi.com/en-us/support/raid/sas_raid/asr-8805/ and unpacked the archive. Afterwards one can simply install the software via the .deb file in the subfolder manager: dpkg -i StorMan-3.01-23531_amd64.deb
During the installation you'll be asked if you want to use the standalone variant. I declined this, to be able to access the webinterface from LAN. If the installation was successful your maxView Storage Manager is accessible via https://<PVE-IP>:8443. The software uses PAM for authentication so I was able to login with the local admin account.
