I don't understand what you mean. The filesystem is created when crfs (create filesystem) is called. If you don't want this FS any more remove it (use rmfs) and create a new one. see "man crfs" and "man rmfs" for more information on these.

If you just want to remove all the files in the filesystem issue

rm -rf /mount/point

for a filesystem mounted on /mount/point. There is simply no reason to "reformat" a filesystem which is already formatted.

crfs is the closest you can come to something like windumbs format command.

SYNOPSIS

       filesystem [ENV]...

DESCRIPTION

       The  filesystem	event  is  generated by the mountall(8) daemon after it has mounted all filesystems listed in fstab(5).  mountall(8) emits
       this event as an informational signal, services and tasks started or stopped by this event will do so in parallel with other activity.

EXAMPLE

       A service that wishes to be running once filesystems are mounted might use:

	      start on filesystem
