If the pc supports this might be a nice way to restart. Some UPS systems and routers offer this support also ( see below) but if your staying with the current model you could do this manually from a website etc.

If accessing BIOS isnt an easy option might also contact HP to see if they have a solution for you. |
HP designed it so you can't access the bios (no crt, mouse or keyboard ports). I called them and they suggested I buy a new HP server since the new ones auto start.
