Is it because DRBD is still syncing that I can't process this command?



No.

I don't think this is related to DRBD.

You could add some -v to your lvcreate,
and look into the system and kernel logs for more information.
I suspect your lvm conf may be missing some filters,
or is otherwise not what you think it should be.

Or you are hitting a bug in lvcreate, unrelated to DRBD.
I seem to remember there used to be symptoms like this a while ago,
where not using lvmetad (use_lvmetad=0) was a workaround.
Something about how auto-activation worked, a race with udev,
and resulting attempt of "double-activation", which then failed.
Please add much hand-waving to the above, it's all somewhat vague
in the back of my head and I may be misremembering,
or confusing or mixing up multiple issues.

Hi

Thank you, I waited for drbd to finish and still have the same problem.

I suspect it to be a LVM problem, can't even start the Volume Group manually.
