Thanks for suggestions.

I have successfully mounted vinum volume without fsck (and even without
setting down any of plexes) and have copied all the data. After that I ha=
ve
recreated vinum volume, and the logs are clear now, and system works fine=
,
so the reason for the problems is still unknown.
