Just got a Disabled Disk message

I'm positive I pushed the "SMART extended self-test" START button.  If/when it finishes, how will I know it's done?  Inside the SMART report dump is a line that reads:

Self-test execution status:      ( 249)    Self-test routine in progress...
                    90% of test remaining.

 

Its read this for about 3 hours but hopefully this means that the extended test is still running?

Almost 24 hours later and it is still running the test.

=== START OF OFFLINE IMMEDIATE AND SELF-TEST SECTION ===
Can't start self-test without aborting current test (90% remaining),
add '-t force' option to override, or run 'smartctl -X' to abort test.

Is it my main CPU that runs the self-test or an embedded controller on the drive itself?  I kicked off another extended test yesterday on /dev/sdg for which the smartctl output said it should take 587 mins.  It is still running almost 24 hours later and says:

The original "bad" drive is also still running its test.
