Right.  No, sorry, I do not know this.  One of the major differences
using the RSA2 in an unsupported server is that I don't have the poweron
control.  I am using an external APC7920 for that purpose instead.  I
needed the remote power management for other devices anyway, so putting
the server there isn't a problem.
