.SH NAME
\f4labelit\f1 (generic) \- provide labels for file systems
.SH SYNOPSIS
\f4labelit\f1 [\f4\-F\f2 FSType\f1] [\f4\-V\f1] [\f2current_options\f1] [\f4\-o\f2 specific_options\f1] \f2special\f1 [\f2operands\f1]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
\f4labelit\f1
can be used to provide labels for unmounted disk
file systems or file systems being copied to tape.
.PP
The
.I special\^
name should be the disk partition (e.g.,
\f4/dev/rdsk/c0d0s6\f1),
or the cartridge tape (e.g.,
\f4/dev/rSA/ctape1\f1).
The device may not be on a remote machine. \f2operands\f1 are
\f2FSType\f1-specific and the manual page of the \f2FSType\f1-specific
\f4labelit\f1 command should be consulted for a detailed description.
.PP
\f2current_options\f1
are options supported by the \f4s5\f1-specific module of \f4labelit\f1.
Other \f2FSTypes\f1 do not necessarily support these options.
\f2specific_options\f1 indicate suboptions specified in a comma-separated 
list of suboptions and/or keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation by 
the \f2FSType\f1-specific module of the command. 
.PP
The options are:
.TP 10 
\f4\-F\f1
specify the \f2FSType\f1 on which to operate.
The \f2FSType\f1 should either be
specified here or be determinable from \f4/etc/vfstab\f1 by
matching the \f2special\f1 with an entry in the table.
.TP 10
\f4\-V\f1
echo complete command line. This 
option is used to verify and validate the command line. 
Additional information obtained via a \f4/etc/vfstab\f1 lookup
is included in the output. The command is not executed.
.TP 10
\f4\-o\f1
Specify \f2FSType\f1-specific options.
.SH NOTE
This command may not be supported for all FSTypes.
.SH FILES
