Default VME interfacing

Any suggestions on interfacing a Solaris-based server to a VME chassis ? Our
server needs to interface with a legacy VME processor via VME shared memory.
Our server can be x86 or SPARC.

What I have found so far are products that bring the VME into the server via
a PCI board: the 801 from GE Fanuc and the 8022 from Nat. Instr.

Another possibility could be a VME processor board that provides ethernet
out to the server. Any VME processor boards that run Solaris that people
want to comment on ? I'm aware of the Themis SPARC-based product.

Thanks very much for your help !
