RESOLUTION

# dmesg | grep I/O

end_request: I/O error, dev sdg, sector 493720592
end_request: I/O error, dev sdg, sector 3907019792
end_request: I/O error, dev sdg, sector 3907018768

This is indicating there is an issue with sdg

Some additional torubleshooting
Attempt to prepare the storage from the command line.

# mdadm --examine /dev/md99
mdadm: No md superblock detected on /dev/md99. (This is bad)

# mkfs.xfs -f /dev/md99

Error:

Next you can attempt to write a filesystem to the other device to verify if they need to be replaced.

First stop md99

# mdadm --stop /dev/md99

Next try to write a filesystem to each device

(CAUTION: Incorrect naming of /dev/sdx can direct to a storage drive instead of archive device. This should only be handled by those comfortable with linux bash shell, if unsure or concerned contact Support for process.)

Make sure to only run against drives listed in above mdadm --detail /dev/md99 command

# mkfs.xfs -f /dev/sdx
