I was able last night to gather some more info about the OS and the condition of the disk. I think it needs to be replaced. As you will see from below is the alternate disk and not primary. I'm trying to scramble a procedure for replacement from "When Good Disks Go Bad" but i have some doubts about it. If you can help it will be real helpfully.

Hello,
On 4/20/2018, we performed a disk replacement on our IBM 8202 P7 server. After the disk was rebuilt, the SAS Disk Array sissas0 showed a status of degraded. However, the pdisks in the array all show a status of active.
We did see a message in errpt. DISK ARRAY PROTECTION SUSPENDED.
