Indirectly he told us that he's not using Vinum.  If you're running
Vinum, you'll see something like this in the dmesg output:

  ...

  da4: 3.300MB/s transfers
  da4: 573MB (1173930 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 573C)
  vinum: loaded
  vinum: reading configuration from /dev/da5e
  vinum: updating configuration from /dev/da3h
