I have a bit more information to add.  After doing some poking around withing 
HP's array configuration utility I noticed that each of the second two MSA20 
chassis had duplicate "Disk Name:" entries which were reusing the same disk 
names that were already in use in the first two chassis.

e.g.:

In the first chassis there is a "RAID-0" with the following configuration 
details:

   Array: A
      Interface Type: SATA
      Unused Space: 0 MB
      Status: OK

      Logical Drive: 1
         Size: 698.6 GB
         Fault Tolerance: RAID 0
         Heads: 255
         Sectors Per Track: 63
         Cylinders: 65535
         Stripe Size: 128 KB
         Status: OK
         Array Accelerator: Enabled
         Unique Identifier: 600508B3008712F0A02CE1E1C1220001
         Preferred Controller Chassis Slot: 2
         Disk Name: /dev/dsk/c4t0d0
         Mount Points: None
         Logical Drive Label: A02CE1E1PAAACAFMQXPI0OC122

      physicaldrive 1:1
         Box: 1
         Bay: 1
         Status: OK
         Drive Type: Data Drive
         Interface Type: SATA
         Size: 750 GB
         Firmware Revision: HPG8    
         Serial Number: 9QK2F9CN            
         Model: HP      GB0750EAFJK     
         SATA NCQ Capable: False

In the third chassis there is a "RAID-0" with the following configuration 
details:

   Array: A
      Interface Type: SATA
      Unused Space: 0 MB
      Status: OK

      Logical Drive: 1
         Size: 698.6 GB
         Fault Tolerance: RAID 0
         Heads: 255
         Sectors Per Track: 32
         Cylinders: 65535
         Stripe Size: 128 KB
         Status: OK
         Array Accelerator: Enabled
         Unique Identifier: 600508B300858330AB339C51E0A30019
         Preferred Controller Chassis Slot: 2
         Disk Name: /dev/dsk/c4t0d0
         Mount Points: None
         Logical Drive Label: AB339C51PAAACAEMQVKB7WE0A3

      physicaldrive 1:1
         Box: 1
         Bay: 1
         Status: OK
         Drive Type: Data Drive
         Interface Type: SATA
         Size: 750 GB
         Firmware Revision: HPG1    
         Serial Number: 5QK077YX            
         Model: HP      GB0750C8047     
         SATA NCQ Capable: False

Note that the entry "Disk Name: /dev/dsk/c4t0d0" is identical for both disks 
which are otherwise distinct.  Does anybody who is familiar with the 'hpacucli" 
utility know how this field is set?  Is it just passed through from OpenSolaris 
as I suspect?  If so, do you have any suggestions as to how I might configure 
the OS to associate the device with a different disk name?

Thanks again in advance!

cheers,
Gabriel
