RTM thanks for your help!
I already fix the problem, I was able to install solaris 10 on Enterprise 4500 on the local SCSI drives (Not at T3), the problem was a SCSI cable between the card that hold both hard drives and a card with SCSI, fiber and network connections, I was thinking that if the Hard Disk is installed on a board, that the board has pins to connect inside the main board for the E4500 should be enough, but I miss to connect the external SCSI cable, the reason why I didn't suspect about that is because on Dell servers or other common marks that has a device inside no cable is requiered, but for SUN on Enterprise 4500 the answer is yes.
I am learning so, please give me a chance, je je je best regards!!!!
