First I'll explain the stale/degraded issue. Then ask about fsck on a
raid5 vinum. My goal is to have the vinum volume check out OK

I've found on the net that I can switch the state by doing:
$ vinum setstate up backup.p0 backup.p0.s3
Ouch, this is a bad move. You just told vinum to start using the stale (=out
of date data) disc as if it was up to date and nothing was wrong with it.
Basically

the state label to change and do nothing to the drives? I don't feel
confident that it did anything and Im having a VERY hard time finding
documentation on this.
Let me give you an example
