Enclosure hardware failure

Hello guys
I am getting EMS errors from our HP-UX servers :

From first server

Mar 20 03:57:02 a2502s01 EMS [2628]: ------ EMS Event Notification ------   Value: "CRITICAL (5)" for Resource: "/storage/events/enclosures/msamon_sas/64000_0xfa00_0x7"     (Threshold:  >= " 3")    Execute the following command to obtain event details:   /opt/resmon/bin/resdata -R 172228610 -r /storage/events/enclosures/msamon_sas/64000_0xfa00_0x7 -n 172228633 -a

Also from second server

A general issue on the MSA60 would be reported on both servers at the same time.

It is always the MSA60 controller device that got reported (64000_0xfa00_0x7) , never an disk.

All disks in the shared disk cabinet and also the controller device are reported as connected (claimed).

The correct cabling of the MSA60, each server is connected to a dedicated  MSA60 controller
