  We discuss the configurations in which singly and doubly quantized vortex
lines may coexist in a rotating superfluid. General principles of energy
minimization lead to the conclusion that in equilibrium the two vortex species
segregate within a cylindrical vortex cluster in two coaxial domains where the
singly quantized lines are in the outer annular region. This is confirmed with
simulation calculations on discrete vortex lines. Experimentally the
coexistence can be studied in rotating superfluid $^3$He-A. With cw NMR
techniques we find the radial distribution of the two vortex species to depend
on how the cluster is prepared: (i) By cooling through $T_c$ in rotation,
coexistence in the minimum energy configuration is confirmed. (ii) A glassy
agglomerate is formed if one starts with an equilibrium cluster of
single-quantum vortex lines and adds to it sequentially double-quantum lines,
by increasing the rotation velocity in the superfluid state. This proves that
the energy barriers, which separate different cluster configurations, are too
high for metastabilities to anneal.
