[root@02 ~]# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1
mke4fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
mkfs.ext4: No such device or address while trying to determine filesystem size
All the usual stuff by playing around with df -h, mount , cat /proc/swaps, /etc/mtab , lsof did not yeild any results.
Checking out some forums suggested that it is related to low level raid stuff and can be found by help of dmsetup and dmraid.

Remove all raid devices metadata
[root@02 ~]# dmraid -r -E /dev/sdb
Do you really want to erase "ddf1" ondisk metadata on /dev/sdb ? [y/n] :y
ERROR: ddf1: seeking device "/dev/sdb" to 32779907366912

Format the entire disk with zeros so that it does not get detected as raid device and cause further problem.
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb
