Default Sun Enterprise 3500 + internal discs

Hello together!

I just got a Sun Enterprise 3500 server - but just without any
documentaion at all. Now I managed to get it POSTing and I tried to
install Solaris on it, but after booting and configuring setup
complains about missing discs.

I have two internal FC-AL discs - and on back there is in the left
interface board one GBIC connetor for LA inserted (the three above are
empty). But there is no cable connected to it nor there came any
cables along with this Sun - so do I need to have one and if how have
I to connect it to get the internal discs working?

Cheers,
Jan

PS: First, CC me please if possible at work I can't read newsgroups,
second does anyone know, where I can get used discs and frames? Thanks
a lot!

Try e-Bay for used hardware. There are also numerous vendors of used
hardware; find the part numbers of the equipment you need and then use
Google to search for dealers who have it.
