  NAME

    eoreadlabel - Displays labels for erasable optical media

  SYNOPSIS

    /usr/bin/eoreadlabel special

  DESCRIPTION

    The eoreadlabel command displays labels for erasable optical media.

    The special name should be the physical disk section for the entire disk
    (such as /dev/rdsk/s3u0p0.0).  The device cannot be on a remote machine.

    The volume name used to identify the cartridge or platter to the users and
    to the system is displayed.  This name is used by the file system command
    when a file system on the cartridge or platter is mounted, whether it is
    in a jukebox or a standalone drive.  A volume name can have 1 to 16
    characters.  These characters may come from the set of all character
    values excluding colon ( : ), null ( \0 ), and slash ( / ).

  EXAMPLES

    To display the label for the media in /dev/rdsk/s3u0p0.0, enter the
    following:

    /usr/bin/eoreadlabel /dev/rdsk/s3u0p0.0
