Raidctl failed with "Device not found" after creating physical disks

I have a T5140 booted from the Solaris 10 Update 8 cdrom.

The system has eight  300GB hard drives. 

The system appears unable to recognize any disks 

# format

Searching for disks...done

No disks found!

I tried to create a 1E raid array using the command

raidctl -C "0.0.0 0.1.0 0.2.0 0.3.0 0.4.0 0.5.0 0.6.0 0.7.0" -r 1E -s 256k 1

While creating the array, it failed to find a Device after creating 8 Physical Disks:

raidctl -C "0.0.0 0.1.0 0.2.0 0.3.0 0.4.0 0.5.0 0.6.0 0.7.0" -r 1E -s 256k 1

Creating RAID volume will destroy all data on spare space of member disks, proce      ed (yes/no)? yes

/pci@400/pci@0/pci@8/scsi@0 (mpt0):

        Physical disk 0 created.

/pci@400/pci@0/pci@8/scsi@0 (mpt0):

Howdy, Stranger!
