I’ve entered graceful exit on some of my nodes \>12 hours ago. Status still shows 0% of progress.  
Tried to restart nodes, without any result.

Nodes are \> 15 months old.

FYI: Nodes are healthy with high uptime and no suspension.

In short, it’ll take 30 days and then instantly finish. The progress indicator is a remnant of the old system and no longer shows any progress. Just keep your node online until you see a confirmation that it’s done, which should happen after 30 days.
