As indicated by your output above, your device file is gone.  It can be
recreated with the following:
=====================================================
Log in as root
cd /dev/cciss
mknod c0d0p5 -m 660 b 104 5 ; chgrp disk c0d0p5
=====================================================

Hope this helps,
Barry
