RE: Unit XX With Device Parity Protection not operational?

Just a warning about this one.  I had the same problem last week and had to
apply the PTF but in the end the drive had to also be replaced.

I had the same messages this morning the error message was CPI1161.

I talked to me CE and there was a PTF out there for this.  The PTF for V4R2
is MF19794.

MF19794: Report fail disk units when no failure accrued.
