Hi all,

Where would I go look at the RAID6 background init progress / percentage / status in iDRAC?

It's an r730 with all the latest patches, iDRAC8 Express, PERC H730P Mini (Embedded) with 8x 6TB drives (ST6000NM0095 7.2K 12Gb SAS) in RAID6. OS: ESXi 7.03.

Tried all the options, all the tabs in iDRAC (Storage, Physical Disks, Virtual Disks, Controllers, Enclosures, job queue) - don't see a progress indication or status. The drives are blinking fast...

So far all I was able to find was an event from 3 days ago, "Background initialization has started for Virtual Disk 0 on Integrated RAID Controller 1.":

P.S. I did not do any manual init - just created a virtual disk. BGI (background initialization) started on its own.

P.P.S. A bit more context: "ESXi VSPhere 6.5 essential storage warning" (VMware Communities).
