RAID And Storage Configuration using RACADM Commands in iDRAC7

Thanks but I already read that document. Maybe I'm not understanding how the consistency check works but I did not see a command to check the status.

I also tried the following command:

racadm storage ccheck:Disk.Virtual.1:RAID.Integrated.1-1

I got this error:

ERROR: STOR013 : One or more Storage device(s) are not in a state where the
 operation can be completed.
Make sure the specified storage devices are in a state appropriate for
the requested operation and retry the operation.

So I don't know if that error indicates that a previous consistency check is still running or something else.

Hello could you try this? from the link page 12,
1.6 storage configuration commands
1. To list all the available controllers: 

$ racadm get storage.controller. 

RAID.controller.1 [Key=RAID.Integrated.1-1#Controller] 

2. To list all the supported attributes of controller 1 

$ racadm get storage.controller.1.

racadm get storage.controller

Storage.controller.1 [Key=RAID.Integrated.1-1#Controller]

racadm get storage.controller.1

[Key=RAID.Integrated.1-1#Controller]

Hi, I can recommend also the below links. Please take a look:

ESXi 7 is installed on my R720XD server.

Which version of the PERCCLI utility do I need to install?

The one listed under drivers for the R720XD only supports up to VMware ESXi 6.7. The PERCCLI utility listed under drivers for the R730XD supports up to VMware ESXi 7 but it does not list the R720XD as being supported.

Jeffx2,

From what I see the latest supported version of ESXi for the R720xd is 6.5, as seen on the support page for the R720xd, so the latest supported PERCCLI would be found here. 

So here is what I get after installing PERCCLI in ESX1 7:

[root@esxi-2:/opt/lsi/perccli] ./perccli /c0 show cc
CLI Version = 007.0529.0000.0000 Sep 18, 2018
Operating system = VMkernel 7.0.3
Controller = 0
Status = Success
Description = None


Controller Properties :
=====================

-----------------------------------
Ctrl_Prop                 Value
-----------------------------------
CC Operation Mode         Disabled
CC Execution Delay        168
CC Current State          Stopped
CC Number of iterations   0
CC Number of VD completed 0
CC Excluded VDs           None
-----------------------------------

I get the same result even after running:

./perccli /c0/v1 start cc

I ran ./perccli /c0/v1 show all so I know I am specifying the correct virtual drive in the other commands.
