growing vinum raid 1+0

Hello all,

I have a question about vinum.  I'd like to end up with a setup like
this:

  disk1 mirrored with disk2 = mirror1

  disk3 mirrored with disk4 = mirror2

  mirror2 concatenated with mirror1

I understand that this is a RAID 1+0 setup.  I'm pretty sure vinum can
do RAID 1+0.

Now, in the future, will I be able to add two more disks:

  disk5 mirrored with disk6 = mirror3

and concatenate mirror3 with the other mirrors?  And then use growfs
to expand the filesystem?

Thanks, I appreciate any suggestions,
Matt
