The disk checks via format should not cause any data loss, so long as you stay clear from any destructive (write) tests. Check the disk for any bad blocks and see if you can sync the mirrors if no disk issues are reported. If you still cannot re-sync, I'd bite the bullet and replace the disk - better to be safe than sorry, especially if it's in a production environment.

NAME
utmpx, wtmpx - utmpx and wtmpx database entry formats SYNOPSIS
#include <utmpx.h> /var/adm/utmpx /var/adm/wtmpx DESCRIPTION
The utmpx and wtmpx files are extended database files that have superseded the obsolete utmp and wtmp database files. The utmpx database contains user access and accounting information for commands such as who(1), write(1), and login(1). The wtmpx database contains the history of user access and accounting information for the utmpx database. USAGE
Applications should not access these databases directly, but should use the functions described on the getutxent(3C) manual page to inter- act with the utmpx and wtmpx databases to ensure that they are maintained consistently. FILES
