Powerpath powermt display: UNKNOWN for HW PATH

Curious if this is a problem or not;  on some hosts, running powermt display dev=all yields the following:
The paths are good, everything is active and alive, all ports are logged into the array (a VNX).. but it's just odd that instead of "qla2xxx" I see "unknown" on the first psuedodevice.
Any thoughts?
