I have been trying to set up a vinum volume both manually and with the
following config file. Within vinum I 'create /etc/vinum.conf' and the machine
panics.
drive drive1 device /dev/da1e
drive drive2 device /dev/da2e
drive drive3 device /dev/da3e
drive drive4 device /dev/da4e
drive drive5 device /dev/da5e
drive drive6 device /dev/da6e
drive drive7 device /dev/da7e
drive drive8 device /dev/da8e
drive drive9 device /dev/da9e
drive drive10 device /dev/da10e
drive drive11 device /dev/da11e
drive drive12 device /dev/da12e
drive drive13 device /dev/da13e
drive drive14 device /dev/da14e
drive drive15 device /dev/da15e
drive drive16 device /dev/da16e

trying to configure similar volumes from the vinum prompt produces errors as
follows:
vinum -> mirror -v -n raid10 -s /dev/da7e /dev/da8e /dev/da9e /dev/da10e
drive vinumdrive0 device /dev/da7e
drive vinumdrive1 device /dev/da8e
drive vinumdrive2 device /dev/da9e
drive vinumdrive3 device /dev/da10e
Can't create drive vinumdrive3, device /dev/da10e: Invalid argument (22)
The partitions that throw up errors remain consistant, though this does not
cause a panic as create does (this way uses 256k stripes which I do not believe
is the problem)
There seems no obvious diference in disk label from those that work and those
that don't:

NB these drives are on two busses before anyone gets worried about numbers :-)
The machine has a full set of da* devices.
Any Ideas?
