NAME
      labelit (s5) - provide labels for s5 file systems

SYNOPSIS
      labelit [-F s5] [generic_options] [-n] special [ fsname volume ]

DESCRIPTION
      generic_options are options supported by the generic labelit command.

      labelit can be used to provide labels for unmounted  s5 disk file systems
      or s5 file systems being copied to tape.

      With the optional arguments omitted, labelit prints current label values.

      The special name should be the disk partition (e.g., /dev/rdsk/0s3), or
      the cartridge tape (e.g., /dev/rmt/c0s0).  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 hard disk, diskette or tape.

      For file systems on disk, fsname and volume are recorded in the
      superblock.

      The options are:

      -F s5     Specifies the s5-FSType.  Used to ensure that an s5 file system
                is labelled.

      -n        Provides for initial tape labeling only (This destroys the
                previous contents of the tape).
