Depending on the number of servers, I would just go with a center mount shelf.  More flexible and functionality should you remove
the server...

Grab some rubber feet (they come with most rack mount network equipment but are rarely used) on the server and you should be ok...
If you want, you could over strap the server for better security.

This has worked well for me.

Cheers,

Aaron

Hi Nanogers

If I have a two post relay rack, could you advise on any generic rails that could be used to 'mid-mount' a 1-4U server on that two
port rack?  Thank you.
