Procedure
Create a new partition on the new block storage. We assume the entire block storage is available, so we won't partition it but we will use it in its entirety. If partitioning is required, use use fdisk or sfdisk.
Use pvcreate to initialize the storage for use as a physical volume with the Logical Volume Manager.
pvcreate /dev/sdb
Use vgcreate to create a volume group that uses the entire physical volume.
vgcreate nfs_vg /dev/sdb
