Just found this one to (maybe) make sure, that pdisk15 is the culprit or soon to be one:

Code:

ssa_diag command 
Purpose
        To Run Diagnostic style tests to a specified device.

[Syntax, Description]

ssa_diag is found in /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin and is invoked:

 ssa_diag -l pdiskX
or
 ssa_diag -l ssaX

additional parameters are:

 [-a] : which causes the adapter to be reset
if it is an adapter being tested. (This has no effect on a disk test)
 [-u] : which forces a disk reservation to be broken, if it is a disk
which is being tested. (This has no effect on an adapter test)
 [-s] : This can only be used with a disk device, and requests the output
of the power status. (This flag cannot be used with the -a or -u flag)

Output

if an error is detected, then a message such as:

ssa0 SRN 42500

will be sent to stdout. If there is no problem, then there is no message
sent to stdout.
A non-zero return code indicates an error, for which output will be sent to
stderr.

Power Status output (to stdout) is as follows:
        pdisk0 0                which means pdisk0 Power good
        pdisk0 1                which means pdisk0 Lost Redundancy
        pdisk0 2                which means pdisk0 Failed

NAME

       raidctl - RAID hardware utility

SYNOPSIS

       raidctl -c disk1 disk2

       raidctl -d disk1

       raidctl [-f] -F filename controller...

       raidctl -l [controller...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  raidctl  utility  creates, deletes, or displays RAID volumes of the LSI1030 HW Raid controllers that include RAID support. The utility
       also updates firmware/fcode/BIOS for both RAID and non-RAID controllers.

       The raidctl utility requires privileges that are controlled by the underlying file-system permissions. Only privileged users can manipulate
       the RAID system configuration. If a non-privileged user attempts to create or delete a RAID volume, the command fails with EPERM.

       Without options, raidctl displays the current RAID configuration on all exisiting controllers.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -c disk1 disk2 (for on board)

	   Create  a  mirror using disk1 and disk2. Replace the contents of disk2 with the contents of disk1. Specify disk1 and disk2 in canonical
	   form, for example, c0t0d0.

	   When you create a a RAID volume, the RAID volume assumes the identity of the first target in the disk pair (disk1). The  second  target
	   (disk2) disappears from the system. Therefore, the RAID volume appears as one disk.

	   To  have  a successful RAID creation, there must not already be a RAID configuration present on the specified controller. Additionally,
	   the secondary disk must not be mounted, as it has all its data erased and replaced with the primary disk's data.

       -d disk1 (for on board)

	   Delete the RAID volume specified as disk1.

	   Specify disk1 in canonical form, for example, c0t0d0.

       -f (for HBA)

	   Force an update. Do not prompt.

       -F filename controller (for HBA)

	   Update the firmware running on the specified controller (controller).

       -l [controller ...] (for on board)

	   List the system's RAID configuration. If controller is specified, list RAID configurations for controller.

	   Output from the -l lists the following information:

	   RAID Volume	   Displays logical RAID volume name.

	   RAID Status	   Displays RAID status as either RESYNCING (disks are syncing), DEGRADED RAID is operating with  reduced  functionality),
			   OK (operating optimally), or FAILED (non-functional).

	   RAID Disk	   Displays RAID disk name.

	   Disk Status	   Displays disk status as either OK or FAILED.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Creating the RAID Configuration

       The following command creates the RAID configuration:

       # raidctl -c c0t0d0 c0t1d0
       RAID Volume 'c0t0d0' created

       Example 2: Displaying the RAID Configuration

       The following command displays the RAID configuration:

       # raidctl
       RAID	 RAID	   RAID      Disk
       Volume	 Status    Disk      Status
       ----------------------------------------
       c0t0d0	 RESYNCING c0t0d0    OK
			   c0t1d0    OK

       Example 3: Deleting the RAID Configuration

       The following command deletes the RAID configuration:

       # raidctl -d c0t0d0
       RAID Volume 'c0t0d0' deleted

       Example 4: Updating Flash Images on the Controller

       The following command updates flash images on the controller:

       # raidctl -F lsi1030.fw 0
       Update flash image on controller 0? (y/N): y
       Flash updated successfully

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	Successful completion.

       1	Invalid command line input.

       2	Request operation failed.
