I have concluded that this is the result of somekind
of vinum/hardware incompatibility. The problem in question
occured during the upgrade to faster disks, specifically,

I have 4 identical disks, labels etc are also identical.
It looks like vinum after reboot does not recognize drives
properly, as it did immedialtely after initial configuration.
One drive/subdisk in each plex isn't recognized, and the other one
is duplicated, which

Some hardware will not boot FreeBSD from SCSI disks unless
the disk is formated and labled in dedicated mode.

I have done some simulations with NFS servers - Intel SCB2 (4G RAM)
serving files from 500G RAID devices. I created a treed directory structure
with 300G of 32k files that approximates our homedirectory structure.
I had about 6 diskless front ends (tyan 2518 with
