Some of the Supermicro motherboards let you configure the reset button
instead as another ACPI button, which you should be able to capture in
the OS.  This would be similar to the diagnostic button on many Dell
servers which changes the blue led to amber (and seemingly little
else.)  Check your motherboard manual, there's either physical jumpers
or an option in the BIOS.
