/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 14 8666 69505222+ 83 Linux
/dev/cciss/c0d0p3 8667 8920 2040255 82 Linux swap

It tells you that you have a SCSI disk with three partitions/slices. Two are Linux partitions (type 83) and one (type 82) is reserved for use by Linux as a swap device. It also tells you the start and end blocks for each partition and the total number of blocks in each partition.

/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 is Smart Array controller drivers ..

Yes,

As was stated, normal SCSI drives appear as /dev/sda /dev/sdb and so forth. The array controller card you have abstracts that further (My guess is because it was ported from Solaris or HPUX) because those types of devices are normal there.
