-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-utility is used for device concatenation configuration.
-The concatenation can be configured using two different methods:
-.Dq manual
-or
-.Dq automatic .
-When using the
-.Dq manual
-method, no metadata are stored on the devices, so the concatenated
-device has to be configured by hand every time it is needed.
-The
-.Dq automatic
-method use on-disk metadata to detect devices.
-Once devices are labeled, they will be automatically detected and
-configured.
-.Pp
-The first argument to
-.Nm
-indicates an action to be performed:
-.Bl -tag -width ".Cm destroy"
-.It Cm create
-Concatenate the given devices with specified
-.Ar name .
-This is the
-.Dq manual
-method.
-The kernel module
-.Pa geom_concat.ko
-will be loaded if it is not loaded already.
-.It Cm label
-Concatenate the given devices with the specified
-.Ar name .
-This is the
-.Dq automatic
-method, where metadata are stored in every device's last sector.
-The kernel module
-.Pa geom_concat.ko
-will be loaded if it is not loaded already.
-.It Cm destroy
-Turn off existing concatenate device by its
-.Ar name .
-.It Cm clear
-Clear metadata on given devices.
-.It Cm list
-List currently configured devices.
-.El
-.Pp
-Additional options:
-.Bl -tag -width indent
-.It Fl f
-Force the removal of the specified concatenated device.
-.It Fl v
-Be more verbose.
-.El
-.Sh EXAMPLES
-The following example shows how to configure four disks for automatic
-concatenation, create file system on it, and mount it:
-.Bd -literal -offset indent
-gconcat label -v data /dev/da0 /dev/da1 /dev/da2 /dev/da3
-newfs /dev/data.concat
-mount /dev/data.concat /mnt
-.Ed
-.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
-Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 if the command fails.
