You're not reading the man page or http://www.vinumvm.org/vinum/how-to-debug.html: If you need to contact me because of problems with Vinum, please send me a mail message with the following information: What problems are you having? Which version of FreeBSD are you running? Have you made any changes to the system sources, including Vinum? Supply the output of the vinum list command. If you can't start Vinum, supply the on-disk configuration, as described below. If you can't start Vinum, then (and only then) send a copy of the configuration file. Supply an extract of the Vinum history file. Unless you have explicitly renamed it, it will be /var/log/vinum_history. This file can get very big; please limit it to the time around when you have the problems. Each line contains a timestamp at the beginning, so you will have no difficulty in establishing which data is of relevance. Supply an extract of the file /var/log/messages. Restrict the extract to the same time frame as the history file. Again, each line contains a timestamp at the beginning, so you will have no difficulty in establishing which data is of relevance. If you have a crash, please supply a backtrace from the dump analysis as discussed below under Kernel Panics. Please don't delete the crash dump; it may be needed for further analysis.
