Why are you running mkfs.lustre on the client? Please read the manual for instructions on how to do initial setup of Lustre.

Thanks a lot for the reply. True we won''t need mkfs.lustre on client as we will only need it at the Server end to format the storage with the Lustre File System.We had problems with the Volume group naming convention so lead to errors.
