I had a proxmox node on an R720 with a std H710 (not in IT mode), made some mistakes and decided to just "nuke" it and start over, and this time give ZFS a try.
So with original H710 (w/o IT mode installed) Cleared configs, initialized disks, deleted as much as I could/knew how to on those SAS drives before I set up my new node.
Then, I purchased a H710 in IT mode, removed the original H710 (w/o IT mode) and installed the H710 (w/ IT mode), installed proxmox (had this issue on boot but followed the instructions and it is fixed).
Then once Proxmox came up and was accessible, I wanted to set up my storage (Raidz1, I have a few extra drives already, so figured it would be ok), and went to create ZFS in the UI, got some errors (screenshots below).
After I thought maybe I would wipe the non-boot drives (via Promox UI) and came across other issues...
One other issue, which I can create a separate post for but maybe they are related - ever since I added the HBA in IT Mode it takes forever for Proxmox to boot.

- SDC is saying ddf_raid_member - I have swapped it out and nothing changes. I have dd, fdisk and gparted it to try to erase it, nothing changes
- When I go an create a ZFS pool using UI I get the error message below, and this seems related to SDD only.
