Locating replicant nodes for blocks of a file

Is there a way to determine on which nodes the blocks of a file are 
located, preferably from the command line?  I'm looking to perform some 
node failure tests causing specific files to become inaccessible but I'm 
not finding a good way of doing so.

fsck [filename/path] -files -blocks -locations
