This should be informational event, although if you see a lot of these events for this disk in short time frame then check disk stats with 'armlog -d M/D1 VA7400' (for example).
This is recovered error, and usually your action is not needed. If VA will decide that disk has exceeded its 'problem limit' then VA will fail disk and you'll need to replace it
