    No, I think MB will be your limit ..

    lsattr -EHl hdisk# | grep size_in_mb

Most notably, I've never seen it return an answer when the disks in question are served up by an EMC back-end storage array. I just double-checked, and I don't seem to be getting a size_in_mb attribute for virtual SCSI disks on VIO client systems either... :-(
