Hi all,
Does anyone know how to control a hard drive light from Linux? I'm building a 24bay Linux File server which will run software RAID and I need an easy way for the engineers to see which HDD has gone bad.
Most of our NAS devices has 2 lights on the hard drive cages and they automatically signal a bad one (reg light, light constant on , etc) but I can't figure out how todo this from Linux.
