      What version of XS? 6.5 or 7.0?

          Some more relevant errors in XC:

          When attempting to create a new SR: "Creating hardware HBA-SR 'Hardware HBA virtual disk storage on 'xenserver': The SR operation cannot be performed because a device underlying the SR is in use by the server"

          Also: "The SR has no attached PBDs"

            @fuznutz04 Can you run a "Repair" on the existing SR?

              No, thats when I get the error in the original post. "Logical Volume mount/activate error."

                Does it matter that I installed XS on the actual RAID 10 array that I want to use for storage?

                  OIC. Missed that on my initial read. 😉

                  No, that shouldn't be an issue. Have you verified that all firmware is up to date?

                        You would need to SSH into the box or use the console tab within XC.

                          @Danp Following that guide.... " A PBD already exists connecting the SR to the host"

                            @fuznutz04 That was for the xe pbd-create? Did you try performing the xe pbd-plug?

                              @Danp yes, also an error. I just stepped away from my desk so don't remember what it was at the moment

                                @fuznutz04 Details are important. 😉

                                If there's nothing meaningful stored on the array, you may be better off to just blow it away and start over from scratch.

                                      @fuznutz04 IDK. Seems odd that this has occurred multiple times. Found this forum post that you may want to review.

                                        what is the output of vgs, lvs, pvs from the console?
                                        Seems like either your lvm layer is bad, or the actual raid array is bad.
                                        Have you tried to unmount this and then runs fsck?

                                        Really weird that the local sr wasn't auto created for after install. It is like the first thing that happens when you connect to XS with XC.
                                        Since it is not working you could just reinstall and try again, there shouldn't be an thing on it at this point.

                                          I think he said he did that a few times already.

                                          I wonder if it is indeed something with the array?

                                            XS installs are usually pretty pain-free.
