Config file is not created by the LVM operator.

I am getting "waiting for lvmd config file" in the topolvm-node pod's log for the file checker container.

sh-4.4# lsblk

lvmo currently requires whole , unpartitioned disks. It looks like there is currently no disk it can use on the system.

Added 2nd disk still not able to create the config file.

Please check if there is a filesystem on the device. If yes, please wipe the disk and try again.
