Description

The Disable-PhysicalDiskIndication cmdlet turns off the identification LED on the specified physical disk. 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

PS C:\> Get-PhysicalDisk -StoragePool $pool | Disable-PhysicalDiskIdentification

This example disables the identification LED on all physical disks associated with the storage pool in $pool.
