Ah, ok.

I was aware of the fact that this command ist not for the normal use.
I just wanted to set a clean startingpoint for this example.

I find the configfile appropriate for initial confiurations.
But what is the best method if one disk faults and gets replaced.
Then I shouldn't need the overall confguration. 
Unfortunately the documentation is not that specific about this point, one
should need only to recreate the subdisks which laid on the faulty disk after
creating a vinum slice on the fresh disk, right?
Or does vinum replicates itself after the failure onto the fresh disk?

A command history and commandline editing :-)

And many thanks for helping anyway!
