description:
 Monitors the physical disks of a Dell PowerVault ME5 system: disk health,
 error and drive-down conditions and SMART status. Temperature, remaining SSD
 life and power-on hours are reported where the disk provides them.

 Performance and reliability data come from the array's disk statistics:
 throughput, IOPS and queue depth are graphed, and the predictive error
 counters (SMART events, media errors, bad blocks, block reassignments, spin-up
 retries, I/O timeouts and no-response events) are summed across both SAS ports
 and raise when they increase between checks. Non-media errors are reported but
 not alerted by default, because low non-zero values are normal. Lifetime data
 read and written appear in the service details.

 State is taken from the disk health value reported by the array. Conditions
 are configurable via the "Dell PowerVault ME5 disk" ruleset.

item:
 The disk location (for example {"0.0"}).

discovery:
 One service is created per disk.
