Now once I have scanned in the new LUN on the OS how do I create a new FS from this space?
Can I use "fdisk" against the dm-<no> to present all paths to the OS?
.....or can I just pvcreate the /dev/dm-<no> and take it from there?

You would work against the dm device like you would /dev/sdb, et al.
You can fdisk it (unless it is too large, then you may need to use parted)
Then you can use mkfs on it to create a file system, unless you use volume groups first, at which point you can do that with pvcreate.
Here's a trick, though. If you are going to add many volumes of the same size (careful on an EVA, they have lower limits on the number of presented LUNs), you can use:
fdisk does not do well on volumes that size. This is why I suggested parted when you hit a size limitation. You might also be able to use sfdisk or cfdisk. My suggestion is to use parted, or one of the other tools to create your partition, because it appears ioctl has not been properly updated.

I have a list of LUN ID, my task is to find if disk has been added or not. How do I do that? I have been searching the forum and not able to find answer.
