I see this in the error log:
Jul 17 07:28:31 [localhost:sas.cable.error:debug]: Failed to retrieve info of cable attached to SAS port "0a".

Possible cause:
Faulty SAS port in the controller - most likely SAS port '0a', check the cable/port.

Steps to check:
1) Re-seat/replace the SAS cable for that path (0a).
2) If the issue remains, re-seat/replace the IOM for that path.
3) If the issue remains, replace the controller with the SAS port for that path (For NetApp Support to decide)

Please refer this KB: (If need be, raise a ticket with NetApp)

We see the event on just disk 0a.00.1. If the errors are still continuing , then I would suggest to simply reseat that disk by keeping out for a min.
