vgdisplay only shows the 300GB SR that was created when XenServer was installed.

I guess that makes sense since the log shows that it failed at the creation of the VG.

I am trying to rule out a possible RO filesystem. Let's try looking one layer below LVM to make sure the target is writable.

"tgtadm --mode target --op show"

Readonly should be "No"

Synchronization completed, and DRBD Status is UpToDate/UpToDate ; however, the same issue is still happening. I failed over and made the 2nd host master, and tried again ; same error.
At this point I don't know if I can do anything but completely wipe both servers and start from scratch, and I really don't have time for that.

Resolved the issue. Completely reinstalled XS7.3 on both hosts and reconfigured ha-lizard/iscsi-ha. Was able to create the repository with no problems then :)

Had this happen again :(
Seems to be the case any time a drbd device existed on the disk previous (ie, and install on an old XenServer, then a wipe/reinstall). Not sure how to go about fixing it other than doing a complete wipe again, and destroying/recreating the RAID arrays.
