I'm having problems with the mkfs command. The output from lsblk is as follows :

sda 8:0 0 40G 0 disk

+-sda1 8:1 0 39G 0 part /

+-sda2 8:2 0 1K 0 part

+-sda5 8:5 0 975M 0 part [SWAP]

sdb 8:16 0 5G 0 disk

+-vg_data01-lvol0 252:2 0 5G 0 lvm

sdc 8:32 0 5G 0 disk

+-vg_log01-lvol0 252:0 0 5G 0 lvm

sdd 8:48 0 5G 0 disk

+-vg_tempdb-lvol0 252:1 0 5G 0 lvm

sr0 11:0 1 1024M 0 rom

When I run mkfs.xfs -f /dev/vg_data01/lvol0 I get the error "<devicename> is required unless -d name=xxx is given."

Would someone mind advising what I've done wrong?

Thanks
