I have followed the method advocated by Drew Tomlinson on this list (October 2002) to create a Vinum volume without losing data. Everything worked ok for the first drive... and then I added the second, and grew the file system using growfs ... and then added the third subdisk to the plex, and tried to growfs again, and got the following message:
# growfs -N /dev/vinum/data new file systemsize is: 195366077 frags Warning: 157556 sector(s) cannot be allocated. growfs: 381497.4MB (781306752 sectors) block size 16384, fragment size 2048 using 2076 cylinder groups of 183.77MB, 11761 blks, 23552 inodes. with soft updates super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at: 625120832, 625497184, 625873536, 626249888, 626626240, 627002592, 627378944, 627755296, 628131648, 628508000, 628884352, 629260704, 629637056, 630013408, ... etc ... 775285280, 775661632, 776037984, 776414336, 776790688, 777167040, 777543392, 777919744, 778296096, 778672448, 779048800, 779425152, 779801504, 780177856, 780554208, 780930560 growfs: bad inode number 1 to ginode #
Here's my vinum configuration summary: # vinum list 3 drives: D d0 State: up /dev/ad7s1e A: 0/190782 MB (0%) D d2 State: up /dev/ad6s1e A: 0/76319 MB (0%) D d1 State: up /dev/ad4s1e A: 0/114473 MB (0%)

I'm running 5.2-RELEASE, with kernel compiled from RELEASE source to include IPFW. Fairly standard stuff. Is something broken or am I doing something wrong??
Thanks, Michael.
