unRaid 6.12.6 - Can't remove parity disks as described in the manual

Having a error free array on my secondary unRaid device I was getting some read problems on one of the two parity disks while the array remained green.

I can't post the system log as stopping the array got rid of the entry's. The lines stated Prio2 in the log, more details I don't remember. 

For that drive .txt from the SMART diagnostics is included. WDC_WD60EFRX-68MYMN1_WD-WX11D4404758-2022-11-20 parity (sdg).txt

 

I've decided to move from double to single parity and analyze the offending disk in a different environment.

 

The manual states:

Trying to do this I'm not presented with the "Unassigned" option but

Selecting no device flags the  parity2 disk as missing, hence the array expects a replacement without allowing me to move to single parity.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Thanks for your time to read this and your help!
