i have a disk with a bunch of data on it; the disk is sliced and formatted with ufs:

euterpe% disklabel /dev/stripe/st0
# /dev/stripe/st0:
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
  a: 976794304       16    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28552
  c: 976794320        0    unused        0     0         # "raw" part, don't edit
euterpe% df -h /home
Filesystem          Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/stripe/st0a    451G    294G    121G    71%    /usr/home
euterpe%

i want to add another disk to /usr/home using concatenation methods.

can i run `gconcat create` on /dev/stripe/st0, then add a provider, without destroying the data on /dev/stripe/st0?

i want a way to continually expand storage as needed. maybe i'll try gvirstor. has anyone here used gvirstor(8)?
