Nope, I never had the "opportunity" of doing this, as I had told I changed
disks from one SmartArray to another (one of my servers go down, and I need it
running ASAP).

But, in you case, it appears from the info you provide that the DAS had a 
controller by itself and are "viewed" by the controller as a "disk".

Then, the /dev/cciss devices are the devices made by the SmartArray driver, if
your DAS are connected on another controller it will be different. 

The following data are from one of my servers with an Adaptec RAID controller,
it has 7 disks, but the controller show only the RAID array (on /dev/sda) to linux: 

SCSI subsystem initialized
libata version 2.00 loaded.
Adaptec aacraid driver (1.1-5[2412])

and, the following data are from a SmartArray 6i controller:

      blocks= 284506560 block_size= 512
      heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 34866

[root@Fiorano ~]# hpacucli ctrl all show config

Smart Array 6i in Slot 0      ()

   array A (Parallel SCSI, Unused Space: 0 MB)

      logicaldrive 1 (135.7 GB, RAID 5, OK)

      physicaldrive 2:0   (port 2:id 0 , Parallel SCSI, 72.8 GB, OK)
      physicaldrive 2:1   (port 2:id 1 , Parallel SCSI, 72.8 GB, OK)
      physicaldrive 2:2   (port 2:id 2 , Parallel SCSI, 72.8 GB, OK)

Then, on the SmartArray i had /dev/cciss/c0d0 (and /dev/cciss/c0d0p1 
and /dev/cciss/c0d0p2) and on the Adaptect I had a /dev/sda 
(and /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2 and /dev/sda3). IMHO from the info you post, 
your DAS had a RAID controller and was detected as a single disk, and 
it differ depending on the SCSI controller it was attached. 
>From the "/etc/fstab" line it didn't had partitions before the failure. 
You told that the channel A hangs the controler on the new server, 
then maybe it was faulty. If it's possible to change the array disks to
the B channel (if it's necessary, I didn't know if the RAID array was 
exported from both channels at the same time).

   Antonio.
