NAME
labelit (xfs) - provide labels for xfs file systems
SYNOPSIS
labelit [-F xfs] [generic_options] [-n] [-o z] special [fsname volume ]
DESCRIPTION
labelit can be used to provide labels for unmounted xfs disk
file systems or for tapes being used to copy xfs file sys-
tems.
generic_options are options supported by the generic labelit
command.
With the optional arguments omitted, labelit prints current
label values.
The special name should be the disk partition (for example,
/dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s5) 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 exam-
ple, root, usr, and so on) 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.
The options are:
-F xfs Specify the xfs FSType. Used to ensure that an
xfs file system is labeled.
-n For initial tape labeling only (to prepare tapes
for volcopy). This destroys the previous contents
of the tape.
-o z Enforce zero-filling of disk blocks allocated to
regular files for enhanced security.
