Bug#560432: turn on enclosure LEDs when a component device fails

[Robert Edmonds]

Package: mdadm
Version: 3.0.3-2
Severity: wishlist

according to http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/3/193,

    "You can flash the various blinky lights by echoing to the fault and
    locate files."

my SAS/SES-2 based array appears to support this:

    .../sys/block/sda/device/enclosure_device:000$ grep . *
    active:0
    fault:0
    locate:0
    status:OK
    type:array device

it would be nice if mdadm could automatically turn on the fault light of
an underlying block device when a component device fails.
