I have an HPE Dl380 with P408i-a controller.

I have successfully installed proxmox 6.1. I am attempting to setup some storage. All actions yeild errors. This is what I get when I try to create a GPT:

Task viewer: Disk sdd - Initialize Disk with GPT

OutputStatus

Stop
Caution: invalid main GPT header, but valid backup; regenerating main header
from backup!

Caution! After loading partitions, the CRC doesn't check out!
Warning! Main partition table CRC mismatch! Loaded backup partition table
instead of main partition table!

Warning! One or more CRCs don't match. You should repair the disk!

Invalid partition data!
TASK ERROR: command '/sbin/sgdisk /dev/sdd -U R' failed: exit code 2


This is what I get if I try to setup a ZFS

Task viewer: ZFS Storage Test - Create

OutputStatus

Stop
# /sbin/zpool create -o ashift=12 Test raidz2 /dev/sda /dev/sdd /dev/sde /dev/sdf /dev/sdg
invalid vdev specification
use '-f' to override the following errors:
/dev/sda contains a corrupt primary EFI label.
/dev/sdd contains a corrupt primary EFI label.
/dev/sde contains a corrupt primary EFI label.
/dev/sdf contains a corrupt primary EFI label.
/dev/sdg contains a corrupt primary EFI label.
TASK ERROR: command '/sbin/zpool create -o 'ashift=12' Test raidz2 /dev/sda /dev/sdd /dev/sde /dev/sdf /dev/sdg' failed: exit code 1
 
I figured it out. I had to go into fdisk and delete old partitions, and all is good.
