Anyway, you might succeed if you tell vinum the names of the=20 devices it should use in /boot/loader.conf, eg. with: vinum.drives=3D"/dev/twed1 /dev/twed2 /dev/twed3 /dev/twed4" there is also a vinum command 'read' which will read the configuration from the drive(s) specified. Please note that if you do not specify all drives in one command, vinum will not find the other drives and complain about missing drives, marking the relevant volumes as degraded or worse. Hope this helps. Best regards, Holger Kipp
