Some more info:

"vinum start" does only check /dev/md0 (the full list md0s1a to md0s4h and
md0a to md0h) but nothing else.

"vinum, read /dev/twed1a" does only check /dev/twed1as1a to /dev/twed1as4h and will
happily accept the first 'new' entry it finds. It is not going to check /dev/twed1a
at all. It does not matter if these entries are available in /dev/ or not.

(all in vinum_scandisk). 


Regards,
Holger
