gmirror + ggate

I'm interested in setting up a fail over server with one drive that uses ggate to mount the drive from the main server and mirror it to its local drive. Something like:

server a: ad0 ad1 (mirrored)
server b: ad0 ggate0 (a ggate of the drives from server a)

ad0 and ggate0 would have a "uni-directional" mirror. So that changes on the ggate would be written to ad0 but changes to ad0 either wouldn't happen (monut ro) or would be ignored.

Is this possible?
