Can't see all disk on a A1000 after 64 bit upgrade

I have a E420r running Solaris 8 01/01 and Oracle 8i. The 420 has 2 18 GB
internal drives and a StorEdge A1000 with 4 18 GB disks attached. I need to
upgrade Oracle to 9i 64 bit, but the system was originally configured as 32
bit Solaris. So yesterday I used Solaris 8 2/02 disks to upgrade the system
and add the 64 bit support. After doing the upgrade I can only see one of
the disks on the A1000, c2t5d0s0, but none of the other 3.

When I boot the system I get the following message :
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0: No such device or address
Can't open /dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0: No such device or address
Can't open /dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d2s0: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0: No such device or address
Can't open /dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0: CAN'T CHECK FILE SYSTEM.
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d3s0: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY.

When I try to run fsck -y /dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0 I get : Can't open
/dev/rdsk/c2t5d1s0 . When I boot and do a format only the 2 internal an
one disk on the array are showing. Any help would be greatly appreciated as
this is a production machine.
