After create lvm partition you need to goto lvm and create vg and lv's.

One might add that once you create the VG (volume group), you'll create LVs (logical volumes) inside that volume group. You can think of LVs as
the LVM equivalents of partitions.

To be honest, I really don't see a huge benefit of using multiple LVs
except for backup purposes.  When you use LVM, you can always expand the
volume group by adding a new PV (physical volume or disk) to the group
and then expanding the LV onto that new PV.  However, it's your system,
do what you will.
