If you are mounting an existing volume with data, do not create partitions or filesystems. All data will be lost. Vultr does not back up Block Storage. Make sure you have a backup before making any changes to block storage volumes.
Create new empty partitions: # parted -s /dev/vdb mklabel gpt # parted -s /dev/vdb unit mib mkpart primary 0% 100% Create new empty filesystem: # mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdb1
Mount the volume after it has been prepared.
Mount block storage: # mkdir /home2 # echo >> /etc/fstab # echo /dev/vdb1 /home2 ext4 defaults,noatime,nofail 0 0 >> /etc/fstab # mount /home2
#systemctl daemon-reload
Chanage Default HOME to HOME2

View Linux Disk Partitions Using lsblk Command
lsblk is a utility for listing block devices. You can use it to view disks and partitions on your Linux computer as follows. It runs well without the sudo command:
$ lsblk
vdb 253:16 0 500G 0 disk
└─vdb1 253:17 0 500G 0 part
