Thanks for all the responses.

Answer:
=======
First, I made a mistake and we are using Solaris 9 08/03 release not 
12/03.  IAE, the install CDs do not contain the correct drivers to see 
the 3510.  You must use a jumpstart image that has the drivers 
installed.  Plus, you need to do a some work on the fabric so that 
things don't step on each other and continually appear after reboots. 
Thanks to Matt Murdock for pointing me at Sun's site again.  I did 
originally look but I tried again and it's amazing what you can find if 
you just change a few search words.  Here's the link

Original question:
==================
We are trying to install Solaris 9 12/03 onto a V880 with an attached
E3510.  The LUNs have been configured on the E3510 and a regular Sol9
boot from HD shows the LUNs using the 'format' command (see below).  The

luxadm command also sees the SES.  When we try to do a 'boot cdrom' from

the Sol9 disk 1 CD, the install program starts but it only sees the
internal drives.  We want to install onto the E3510 LUNs.  Any ideas?
