I've got mine scheduled...

We have two ASP's. One of higher speed spinning disks, one of slower
speed, but huge, spinning disks.
The disk is looking like this:

WRKDSKSTS
--Protection--
Unit ASP Type Status
1 1 DPY ACTIVE
2 1 DPY ACTIVE
3 1 DPY ACTIVE
4 1 DPY ACTIVE
...
23 2 DPY REBUILD
24 2 DPY REBUILD
25 2 DPY REBUILD
26 2 DPY REBUILD
27 2 DPY REBUILD

Nothing of note in WRKPRB, SST-SAL, etc
