labelit_vxfs(1M)
labelit_vxfs - provide labels for VERITAS File Systems
Synopsis
labelit [-F vxfs] [generic_options] [-n] special [fsname volume
]
Description
labelit can be used to provide labels for unmounted vxfs disk file systems or for tapes being used to copy vxfs file systems.
With the optional arguments omitted, labelit prints current label values.
The special name should be the disk partition (for example, /dev/rdsk/c0b0t1d0s5) or the tape device (for example, /dev/rmt/c0s0). The device may not be on a remote machine.
The fsname argument represents the mounted name (for example, root, usr ) 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.
