EMVS supports this --
http://evms.sourceforge.net
However, in my experience -- it's really slow; and it was faster for me to
backup the data to tape; recreate the raid and restore.
It may be faster now; that was under release v2.5.1

Subject: RAID-5 Expansion
Is the only way to increase the size of a RAID-5 array to push the
data somewhere else and create a new array including the new device?
This is the only solution I have come across so far.
