    part_end: 4GiB
  - name: /dev/sdb
    number: 2
    flags:
      - lvm
    part_start: 4GiB
    part_end: 8GiB

storage_volumegroups:
  - name: group1
    devices:
      - /dev/sdb2
  - name: group2
    devices:
      - /dev/sdb2

Define the LVM logical volumes to create:

storage_volumes:
  - name: var1
    vg: group1
    size: 16

storage_filesystems:
  - name: /dev/group1/var
    filesystem: ext4

Define the mount points to create:

storage_mounts:
  - name: /var
    src: /dev/group1/var1
    owner: root
    group: root
