https://community.hpe.com/t5/disk-enclosures/background-parity-initilization/m-p/2496396#M1316 We have a RA4000 with 5 - 9 gig drives and we recently added 4 additional 9 gig drives. SQL 7 is running on the array. The volume expansion did not take very long. The problem we have now is with Background Parity Initilization, this has been running for 10+ hours. The ACU is set for medium priority, what kind of time frame can we expect for the parity initilization to complete?

So it could take another day, before the post message goes away and performance goes back to normal.
