we need some way in the storage role to do the equivalent of 1. create a VG, passing the --shared option to vgcreate 2. Activate the new VG using vgchange --lock-start <VG> and 3. Create the LV, passing the --activate sy option to lvcreate. The proposal is to add a new shared: (true|false) option for volumes to abstract this functionality in the storage role.
