I've only tried growing a RAID5, which was the only RAID that I remember
being supported (to grow) in the kernel, I am not sure if its posible to
grow other types of RAID arrays.

dear sir:
i try to make a reshape command with mdadm (version
2.5.2).in linux shell ,i make
$:mdadm -G /dev/md5 /dev/sdd2
/dev/md5 is a raid5 device with 4 disks,/dev/sdd2 is a partition
it give the prompt :mdadm :can only add devices to linear arrays,but i
have read the resourse code of mdadm(V2.5.2),it do really support
adding several disks into a array (espacially raid5) to make the array
more large capability.
i want to know if i want to add(not hotadd) a disk(or a partition) to
this array ,how can i make an reshape command correctly?
i have read the help of mdadm ,but i still can't find the correct
command format!
please do me a favor!
thank you !
