Description

The LED is typically used for visual identification of the location of a physical disk in an enclosure for removal and replacement operations. This cmdlet requires a storage enclosure that supports SCSI Enclosure Services (SES).

Examples

Example 1: Disable the identification LED on all physical disks in a pool
