 remove [noscan] [quiet]
This command allows you to remove (or export) a port (or drive) /cx/px
Exporting a port instructs the firmware to remove the specified port from its 
pool of managed ports, but does not retain the DCB (Disk Configuration 
Block) metadata on the attached disk. You can import (or re-introduce) the 
port by rescanning the controller.
noscan is used to not inform the operating system of this change. The default 
is to inform the operating system. 
quiet is for non-interactive mode.

 set identify=on|off
This command applies only to 9550SX, 9590SE, and 9650SE model 
controllers.
This command sets the LED status of the port to on or off. If identify is set to 
on, the firmware activates the setting of the corresponding LED of the port on 
the controller and causes it to blink.
Note:
                                      
Example:
//localhost> /c0/p5 set identify=on
Setting Port Identify on /c0/p5 to [on] ... Done.
Warning:
 Use caution when using this command as this operation will degrade 
any redundant units. This command will fail if you attempt to remove a drive from a 
non-redundant unit. After the drive is removed in CLI it can be removed physically, 
without powering down the system if a hot swap carrier is available. System hangs 
and damage can occur if a hot swap carrier is not used.
Note: 
This feature requires an enclosure that uses an integrated AMCC/3ware 
CCU (chassis control unit). (Check the 3ware web site for a list of chassis vendors 
that support enclosure services, as they become available.)
