I tried this out earlier on some Supermicro motherboards I own and it
didn't work (as well as various combinations of the re-arm command).
Naturally my firmware can be different, cards different, etc. so I don't
know if it will work for Geert Jan.

Through a vendor, I'm pinging Supermicro to see if they can cough up how
to make this happen on our Supermicro boards.  I'm guessing it could be
an OEM command.
