Could you please elaborate the "right information"? You mean format can 
get the information about removed disk? Is it the right one?

You could set NOINUSE_CHECK to 1 to by pass the device in use check, 
which may take a long time especially there are lots of disks. Besides 
that, format(1M) might be blocked on some I/O. You can truss format to 
see what is going on.
