It sounds like your IPMI/BMC is causing the server to hang, but I'm not 100% sure you have an IPMI on that board. I've encountered a very similar condition a number of times with supermicro IPMI when rebooting using OpenBSD (and Linux, fwiw)

You can avoid this by resetting the BMC before you reset the server. See this thread, there is fix at the end:
http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/Reboot-Issues-td286573.html

(I made a script that "replaced" the reboot command where it calls the ipmi reset before issuing the server reboot. You'll probably want to do this too.)

Description:
I have this SuperMicro X8DTL, I started with 6.3-release, everything works just fine, after some time, I reboot the server and I got a 5 short beeps and 1 long beep (memory fault), so I unplug the power, plug in again, and boots fine, after a bit, I reboot it again and same problem (it's the same if I halt and try to turn it on again) swaping
      around DIMMS, also tried just with one, two, etc, no luck. I
tried with -current
(dmesg attached) and same thing. Maybe was a hw problem, but I tried
      with another server (same hw) and the problem still there.

Hey, thank you for this! Yup, the problem is right there. This ,,workaround''
fix my issue!
