NAME

     labelit_ufs - provide and print labels for ufs file systems

SYNOPSIS

     labelit -F ufs [generic_options] special [ fsname volume]

DESCRIPTION

     labelit is used to write labels on unmounted disk file  sys-
     tems.  Such  labels may be used to uniquely identify volumes
     and  are  used   by   volume-oriented   programs   such   as
     volcopy(1M).

OPTIONS

     The following option is supported:

     generic_options
           options supported by the generic  labelit command. See
           labelit(1M).

OPERANDS

     The following operands are supported:

     special
           name should be the physical disk section (for example,
           /dev/dsk/c0d0s6).  The  device  may not be on a remote
           machine.

     fsname
           represents the mount point (for example, root, u1, and
           so on) of the file system.

     volume
           may be used to represent the physical volume name.

     If  fsname and  volume are not specified, labelit prints the
     current  values  of  these labels.  Both  fsname and  volume
     are limited to six or fewer characters.
