It basically works for me. Of course, vinum still has a dozen
of bugs that get uncovered once you leave the path Greg has
been testing :) (like you make a typo in your configuration...),
but that's another matter.
Anyway, since i just fell again across it: the vinum devfs volume
entries get assigned to root:wheel mode 0600. This makes it
impossible for a member of group `operator' to dump(8) them although
operators can dump any other disk device. We should make it
consistent (either way).
Also, i have been surprised that the /dev/vinum/plex nodes of a
mirrored volume don't show identical contents (and the second one even
seems to have the wrong device size), but that's certainly not a
problem of the DEVFS integration again, but a genuine vinum bug.
