Often prtdiag will tell you the vendor, but sometimes Fujitsu hardware will just say Sun. If think I remember seeing that on some T series machines in the past.

Basically, if it says Fujitsu on the prtdiag output you can be sure it's Fujitsu. If it says Sun there is a chance it's actually Fujitsu hardware sometimes. Your organization should have it documented somewhere in their inventory.

If you're not sure, and you don't have physical access to the server you can always check if the Fujitsu support tools are installed. Assuming whoever installed the OS initially set it up correctly they should have installed the Fujitsu support tools. For example, you should see fjsnap on there, which is Fujitsu's equivalent to Sun's Explorer.
