Does anyone know of a way to make a disk activity LED flash on demand?
My server has 11 drives connected ATM with more to come. These are
connected in a variety of ways - 2 SCSI drives, 6 SATA drives plugged
directly into the mobo, and 3 via port multipliers.
All of these drives are in various softRAID arrays. I'd like to be able
to identify a specific drive via software, so that when a drive is
overheating or failing I can pull just that drive, instead of going
through the 'Let's pull this one and see if that's right' routine.
Long ago I had a hardware RAID controller that could do just that. You
could tell it to id a specific drive and it would flash that LED. Is
there any way to do that?
