Subject:   raid of a concat in gvinum

Dear all,

I have a concat of three scsi disk ( 75GB + 75GB + 150GB) that works 
without problems since 4 years using 6.2-RELEASE, i'll upgrade to 7.0 
when it will be released.
I would like to change the configuration adding 2 more 300 GB disk 
and creating a a big raid disk : (75+75+150) + 300 + 300 = 600 GB (a 
little less).
My questions are :

Is this possible in gvinum ?
In other words, can i use for a raid a concatenated disk ?
If yes, how ? Someone can point me to some examples or how-tos 
(googling i didn't find anything to that specific configuration) ?
If i can do this (weird thing, i admit it :-) ) , must i destroy the 
concatenated file system ? (my answer to this question is "yes, of 
course, stupid", but ...)

Best regards,
Paolo Tealdi
