Cannot share mounted VMFS_v (External HDD) to network via NFS

I had Gpt external HDD and file system is "VMFS_v"

Mount as

     #vmfs-fuse /dev/sdb1 /mnt/sp/

Share /mnt/sp to network as NFS and it failed

How could I achieve this share to network for /mnt/sp ?

What fails ?
Are you aware that depending on the vmfs-tools version it can not handle vmdks larger than 256GB and will not work with VMFS 6 at all ?
What does "VMFS_v" mean ? - that is not a valid version number.
What are you trying to acchieve ?
You will never be able to launch a VM from a vmfs-fuse mounted datastore.
