## In the resulting '''Block Device Management''' page, edit the disk that we want to create the NFS storage on.
## Find the '''Create a partition in /dev/sd''x''''' section and hit '''Create''' (default options)
# Then create a volume group for NFS use...
## Go to '''Volume Groups''' (right-hand menu) and find the '''Create a new volume group''' section
## Give the volume group a name (eg volgrp1), select the partition/physical volume and hit '''Add volume group'''
## Click on the '''create new physical volumes''' link
## Go to '''Add Volume''', and find the '''Create a volume in ''volgrp''''' section
## Give the volume a name (eg nfs), select all space, change Filesystem to '''ext3''', and hit '''Create'''

## On '''System''' tab, find '''Network Access Configuration'''
## Add in the local network address, or specify individual NFS client IP address, etc, and hit '''Update'''

## On '''Services''' tab, '''Enable''' NFSv3 server
## Go to the '''Shares''' tab, and create a new share (eg share) under the NFS mount
## Once created, click on the share name to edit it
## Enable RO or RW NFS access (as required) for the specified networks/hosts
