I have also managed to write a script to control the fault and
identification lights on the JBOD using SES2 and informations from
this post:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg50273.html

The hardware I am using is a LSI 9201-16e controller, connected
through a LSI SAS6160 switch to a LSI DE1600 JBOD array, so they
should be compatible.

I am very interested in how you are doing things in your script, so
please put it up somewhere.
