Check the volume out first, without doing a label check. Insert the volume
and do the label libv. I would do further checking if I were you though. I
think relabling a volume this way will destroy your data, as it may zero
out the index. You don't want to re-initialize the volume, just put on a new
label.
just a thought or two..
