It's the first I've heard of it. Do you mean these entries in the kernel config file? # Configuring Vinum into the kernel is not necessary, since the kld # module gets started automatically when vinum(8) starts. This # device is also untested. Use at your own risk. # # see vinum(4) for more reasons not to use these options. pseudo-device vinum #Vinum concat/mirror/raid driver In any case, Vinum was developed with INVARIANTS and INVARIANT_SUPPORT, so I doubt this is your problem. If you do have problems, of course, you should tell me about them. I note that you've had problems with Vinum in the past, but this is the first time you mention INVARIANTS.
