I've had a problem when I went to update a ZFS based Proxmox V7 node. It was configured with 4 disks as two RAID1 mirrors in a single pool.
The idea was to start afresh with this node and restore the various containers and vms from backups once it was in the cluster
To ensure I had a clean environment, before starting, I used a rescue iso to wipe the labels off of the disks (because I've had problems before if I didn't do this) and I opted to start with just two of the disks in RAID1. Installation proceeded as normal until right at the end, when I got:
bear in mind that was previously installed with a fresh copy of proxmox v7.
As a double check, I have now successfully installed Proxmox V7.4-1, so it's something explicit to V8.2-1
