      SPL import protection only exists if hostid is set to a non-zero value. If servicenode or failover is given as an option, then mkfs.lustre should at least warn that hostid is set to zero and import protection won't work.

      Proposed solution:

      • Have mkfs.lustre fail if --servicenode / --failover is specified and hostid is zero (will check spl_hostid value).
      • Add override option --force-nohostid to ignore this case
