I saw two unsualy points in your config.
1. why use more than one vinum partition per physical drive?
   vinum itself handles it very well - it's a volume manager.
2. I don't think that a stripe size not matching n * page size is a
   good choice.
Both points shouldn't crash your box but it's at least not very common.

There must be a reson to reject.
