The press releases I've seen mention "selected...servers", and mention
some models, but I've not seen one that mentions those particular models.

However, googling for the following should be appropriate for your question:

solaris x3400 OR x3500 site:ibm.com OR site:sun.com

The first link I saw showed someone with a recent install that couldn't get
past constantly rebooting.  The first links from IBM sites were for updates
for those models. If it were me, I might interpret them as indicating that it
might be possible (because Solaris was one of the OSs one could choose on a
menu button), but I haven't used any IBM support sites recently, so I could
be way off base on that interpretation.  OTOH, on
http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/xbc/cog/systemxnos.html
which seems to be multiple tables of what's supported on which IBM x series
systems, I don't see Solaris listed for the x3400 or x3500, although those
tables are a bit tedious to read.

The rest of the research is left as an exercise for the OP, which is to say,
this isn't my thing, I was just curious enough to look a bit is all.
