from maanual page:
DESCRIPTION
During system boot on Solaris hosts, the powercf utility
configures PowerPath devices by scanning the HBAs for both
single-ported and multiported storage system logical dev-
ices. (A multiported logical device shows up on two or more
HBAs with the same storage system subsystem/device identity.
The identity comes from the serial number for the logical
device.) For each storage system logical device found in the
scan of the HBAs, powercf creates a corresponding emcpower
device entry in the emcp.conf file, and it saves a primary
path and an alternate primary path to that device.
