labelit(ADM)
labelit --
provide labels for filesystems
Syntax
/etc/labelit
special [ fsname volume [ -n ] ]
Description
The labelit command can be used to provide labels for unmounted disk
file systems or file systems being copied to tape.
The -n option provides for initial labeling only.
(This destroys previous contents.)
With the optional arguments omitted, labelit
prints current label values.
The
special name should be the physical disk section (e.g.,
/dev/dsk/0s3). The device may not be on a remote machine.
The fsname argument represents the mounted name (e.g.,
root, u1, etc.) of the file system.
volume may be used to equate an internal name to a volume
name applied externally to the disk pack, diskette, or tape.
For file systems on disk, fsname and volume
are recorded in the super block.
