Please believe me ... Mendel is no fool and has attempted all
available options, only to find that they didn't work.

A BIOS upgrade as suggested by Mario *might* change the picture,
but it's not a simple operation -- it appears to require combined
upgrades of all the firmware components in the ILO processor (it
was never touched since installation in 2007).

Remote switchable power or some NAS-like connection appear the most
promising "solutions", but will require extra equipment.
