Anyone successfully installed Solaris x64 11/06 on a DL 380 G5 Server

[Tyler Brown]

I am having problems doing this, and I want to be sure it can in fact be done.

The server I am using has 2 of the 5440 Series quad core processors @2.83Ghz

Thanks for the quick responses. I have closely followed the deployment guide for a basic installation, and I am aware that this server is considered certified, however I am having troubles that I have had to escelate to high levels of HP support.

I just want to put this message out to the forum to see if anyone has actually successfully run Solaris 11/06 in 64bit on this specific server configuration. I'm using the P400 RAID card as well.
