Yes but in given example in section 2.2.2.1 two mgsnodes are
specified for --ost and you are specifying it for --mdt maybe that is
the problem? Do you have combined mgs with mdt ? Do you have one file
system or more?

Yes only one MGS per site, but you should be able to specify
multiple MGS nodes. We have done it before with 1.6.0. See http://
manual.lustre.org/manual/LustreManual16_HTML/DynamicHTML-05-1.html
section 2.2.2.1.

Hi,
I think this is because there can be only one MGS per lustre
installation (this is what manual says).

For some reason, only the last --mgsnode option is being kept.

Multiple --mgsnode parameters should work:
mkfs.lustre --mkfsoptions="-O dir_index" --reformat --mdt
