gvinum raid5 not comming up

[Marc]

Hi all,

I just tried to create a raid5 set, but the set doens't seem to come up
after: 

bringing all disks down with "vinum setstate stale <disk>"

then starting the config with "gvinum start <config>"

The kernel reports that all  GOEM_VINUM <disks> are ready... But
nothings happening.

please advice.

Yours,

-marc
