TOPIC: Unable to install iSCSI Target Framework

We have a similar problem as #1309

we run on 2 x DL380G7 and installed Xenserver 7.2

after running
yum install scsi-target-utils --enablerepo=ha-lizard-e
we get:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Bad id for repo: ha-lizard-epel , byte = 14
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* ha-lizard-base: mirror.centos.org
No package scsi-target-utils available.
Error: Nothing to do

So we changed /etc/yum.repos.d, just a described in #1309
Then we get:
yum install scsi-target-utils --enablerepo=ha-lizard-epel,ha-lizard-base
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Bad id for repo: ha-lizard-epel , byte = 14
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* ha-lizard-base: mirrors.supportex.net

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest


What to do?

Thanks for posting. We have not seen this yet, but will give it a try to see if we can reproduce it.

Same issue for us. Something new about it?
We are running XenServer 7.2
Thanks.

I just tested a complete installation on a pair of 7.2 hosts and did not experience the issue. Perhaps there is a DNS issue or some other problem reaching the centos epel repo from your installation site?

I used:
- clean install of 7.2 on 2 hosts
- this installation script: halizard.com/ha-lizard-software/ha-lizard-nosan-installer-xen-7
