pSeries or RS/6000 in a Netbay rack
Has anyone used the standard rails for a rackmount p-Series or RS/6000
server in an IBM Netbay (9308) rack? The Netbay has round holes like
the pSeries-specific 7014 rack. Do they use the same front-to-back
spacing for the mounting posts? I do not have a rack here to check.
I would like to put a p520 in a rack, and future purchases of PC-based
servers should be able to go into the same rack. There is a locally
available Netbay rack that we can use, or we could get the OEM rails
and a rack with square holes.

The P4 and P5 machines are supposed to fix into any standard wide19"
rack whatever the standard depth is would apply as well.
