I'm trying to mount my external hard drive with this command on my Citrix hypervisor;

mount -o rw /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd

But I'm getting this error:

mount: /dev/sdd1 is already mounted or /mnt/sdd busy

It's not mounted, and doesn't appear to be busy.

The drive does not show up in /etc/mtab

I would be grateful for any support!
