I have a behaviour from disk/prep I do not understand.
I want to setup a partition table on a venti server as follows.

%disk/prep /dev/sdE0/plan9
        empty                             0 204800              (204800 
sectors, 100.00 MB)
        nvram                   204800 204801           (1 sectors, 512 B )
        empty                   204801 204816           (15 sectors, 7.50 KB)
        arenas0                 204816 209920016                (209715200 
sectors, 100.00 GB)
        isect0            209920016 220405776           (10485760   sectors, 
5.00 GB)
        arenas1           220405776 430120976           (209715200 sectors, 
100.00 GB)
        isect1            430120976 440606736           (10485760   sectors, 
5.00 GB)
        arenas2           440606736 650321936           (209715200 sectors, 
100.00 GB)
        isect2            650321936 660807696           (10485760   sectors,

5.00 GB)
        arenas4           881008656 1090723856  (209715200 sectors, 100.00 GB)
        isect4          1090723856 1101209616   10485760   sectors,  5.00 GB)
        arenas5         1101209616 1310924816   (209715200 sectors, 100.00 GB)
        isect5          1310924816 1321410576   (10485760   sectors,  5.00 GB)
        arenas6         1321410576 1531125776   (209715200 sectors, 100.00 GB)
        isect6          1531125776 1541611536   (10485760   sectors, 5.00 GB)
        arenas7         1541611536 1751326736   (209715200 sectors, 100.00 GB)
        isect7          1751326736 1761812496   (10485760   sectors, 5.00 GB)
        bloom           1761812496 1762861072   (1048576     sectors, 512.00 MB)
        empty           1762861072 1875379842   (112518770 sectors, 53.65 GB)

Now if I write the partition to disk, and exit the prep,
the bloom, isect7 and arenas7 partition are gone.

If I prep the disk again it shows following

%disk/prep /dev/sdE0/plan9
        empty                             0 204800              (204800

        arenas0                 204816 209920016                (209715200

        isect6          1531125776 1541611536   (10485760   sectors, 5.00 GB)
        empty           1541611536 1875379842   (333768306 sectors, 159.15 GB)

What's causing that?
