Other How to setup raid 1+0 and 1 in FreeBSD on Azure? (Complete noob question)

Hello
I've been tasked with setting up a server running FreeBSD on a system disk with 4 additional disks in raid 1+0 and a server running FreeBSD on a system disk with 2 additional disks in raid 1. Both servers are hosted in Microsoft Azure.
I've never worked in FreeBSD (I had not heard about before last week) and barely worked in Linux based systems in general (Our Linux guy is on vacation in World of Warcraft so I have ended up with this task). Can someone assist me with code or point me towards simple documentation for this (hopefully simple) task?

Best regards
Matias
 
Alright, the disks are added from the Azure portal as da2 and da3. So is this command sufficient for creating the raid 1 with da2 and da3:

gmirror label -v gm0 /dev/da2 /dev/da3
 
That should create the mirror, yes. After that you can partition and format the /dev/mirror/gm0 disk.
