Use IPMI to trigger LEDs, increase fan RPMs or sound the beep/alarm. Take a look at the man page for ipmitool https://linux.die.net/man/1/ipmitool depending on the server you may be able to set the LEDs, LCD display, fan RPM offset(listen when nobody is in the office). Some other IPMI or BMC interfaces may allow you to sound the beep but this functionality is more platform specific.
a powerful workstation or server will sound like someone vacuuming with the fans turned up all the way.
EDIT:
To use the Identifier lights as mentioned in comments, this will however require setting making sure that an appropriate IPMI interface is setup, there are several guides and tutorials available, and depending on the OEM there may be proprietary interfaces and management systems like Intel’s Data Center Manager(http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/software/intel-dcm-product-detail.html). I have used this tutorial before but there are others https://www.thomas-krenn.com/en/wiki/Configuring_IPMI_under_Linux_using_ipmitool
ipmitool -I <appropriate interface for system> -U<username> chassis identify force should force the ID to an on state, depending on the interface and configuration you may need to specify authentication type and other command line options.
