--- Comment #2 from Stefan Hundhammer ---
To start with, that controller's firmware seems to have a different idea how to
create a correct partition table than the Linux "parted" command; from the
y2log:
2016-11-09 12:46:02 <1> hpsrv058(4948)
[libstorage] SystemCmd.cc(execute):143 SystemCmd
Executing: "/usr/sbin/parted -s '/dev/sda' unit cyl print unit s print"
Warning: /dev/sda contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has
a GPT table. However, it does not have a valid fake msdos
partition table, as it should. Perhaps it was corrupted --
possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition
tables. Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using
an msdos partition table. Is this a GPT partition table?
Error: The backup GPT table is corrupt, but the primary appears
OK, so that will be used.

---------------------------------------------------------
With all those smallish fat16 partitions, the automated storage proposal
decides that it cannot make any sensible suggestion, so you get that "do it
manually" message.
Very likely you could still choose the "wipe the entire disk" option and let it
do a proposal based on that.
But short of that, there is no way to decide in an automated way what to delete
on that crowded disk.
Verdict: The message is correct. There is no way to do an automated storage
proposal here.
