So is drive Vinum1 from Vinum's point of view.

You haven't told Vinum where to put the subdisk.  You must have
received an error message telling you about that.  The result is
correct:

That's not your question, but I'm surprised it isn't.  

To your question: if you add a second plex, it'll come up in "corrupt"
or some such state.  With 'start plex.p1' (for example) you can bring
it up, which involves copying the data.
