          LABELIT(1M)          INTERACTIVE UNIX System          LABELIT(1M)



          NAME
               labelit - provide labels for file systems

          SYNOPSIS
               /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.
