like bartus11 mentioned, this can vary server to server.
In my experience, on newer Sun.Oracle machines, unconfiguring the disk using cfgadm (if possible) will switch the LED to indicate the drive is 'safe to remove'.

NAME
sgpio - captive backplane LED control utility
SYNOPSIS
sgpio [-h] [-V] [[-d|--disk <device>[,<device>...]] | [-p|--port <port>[,<port>...]]] [-s|--status <status>] [-f|--freq <frequency>]
DESCRIPTION
Serial General Purpose Input Output (SGPIO) is a communication method used between a main board and a variety of internal and external hard
disk drive bay enclosures. This utility can be used to control LEDs in an enclosure. For more information about SGPIO, please consult the
SFF-8485 Specification.
OPTIONS
-h, --help
displays a short help text
-V, --version
displays the utility and AHCI SGPIO specification
-d, --disk
disk name of LED location. Names are sda,sdb,sdc,... Multiple names can be provided in a comma-delimited list.
-p, --port
SATA port number of LED location, can be used if a disk name is no longer valid. 0,1,2,3,... Multiple ports can be provided in a
comma-delimited list.
-s, --status
status of the LED to set. LED status is: locate, fault, rebuild, off
-f, --freq
Set the frequency at which the LED should blink (in Hz). Frequency should be an integer between 1 and 10.
EXAMPLES
Set the locate LED on SDA with an Intel Intelligent backplane:
sgpio -d sda -s locate
Set the locate LED on SDA to flash at 3 Hz for non-intelligent backplanes:
sgpio -d sda -s locate -f 3
Set SATA port 2 with fault at a 3 Hz flash rate:
sgpio -p 2 -s fault -f 3
Set disks sda through sdf to fault:
sgpio -d sda,sdb,sdc,sdd,sde,sdf -s fault
EXIT STATUS
sgpio should return zero when successful. It will return with a non-zero value if there was a failure.
