[OmniOS-discuss] R720 reset magic?

Greetings,

I'm trying out OmniOS 151006l on a new R720, and have noticed that a
"shutdown -i6" style shutdown does not reboot the server.  It goes through
the "syncing disks..." and "done" phases, then just stops there.  Power
remains on.  An IPMI or DRAC "reset" gets things going again.

Note that a "shutdown -i5" style shutdown does power off the system;  And
"shutdown -i6" works fine on all our older R710's (one OmniOS, one oi151a7).
I've disabled the fast-reboot flag on the R720 as well, with no change in
behavior, via:
 svccfg -s system/boot-config:default setprop config/fastreboot_default=false

Anyone else out there with experience running OmniOS on an R720?  Have
we tripped over some new BIOS default somewhere?  Suggestions on debugging
what's probably an acpi-related thing would be welcome.

Thanks and regards,

Marion
