You configure an LVM volume group for each Cinder backend. A CInder volume on that backend corresponds to an LVM volume in that volume group. The LVM volume is exposed as an iSCSI target, usually via LIO, but I believe this is configurable. The compute node uses /iscsiadm /to import that volume as

Volume I/O won't flow through the controller. The LVM reference driver, for example, sets up an iSCSI target on the storage node, which the compute node then imports. The NFS driver has the compute node mount the exported filesystem. Depending on the driver, I/O may even flow directly between an
