Hi Jeff,

I have talked to J. Berdner at SMA, and Chris F. at Outback  and  
there is no problem with using the Sunny Boy into the Outbacks.   
Should work with any grid tie version, but the folks at SMA can work  
with you to tweek some of the settings so the line tie inverters  
don't trip off line unnecessarily.
( I've looked into this for a similar project)

The only problem would occur if the batteries were full and there was  
nowhere for the power to go.
To get around this use some solid state relays, controlled via the  
VFX's to shut off the SB's if the battereis get too full.

Given that you are now at 500v from the array, better to move the  
inverters to where you want them.

Good luck,

jay
