+.TH E2LABEL 8 "February 2023" "E2fsprogs version 1.47.0"
+.SH NAME
+e2label \- Change the label on an ext2/ext3/ext4 file system
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B e2label
+.I device
+[
+.I volume-label
+]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B e2label
+will display or change the volume label on the ext2, ext3, or ext4
+file system located on
+.I device.
+.PP
+If the optional argument
+.I volume-label
+is not present,
+.B e2label
+will simply display the current volume label.
+.PP
+If the optional argument
+.I volume-label
+is present, then
+.B e2label
+will set the volume label to be
+.IR volume-label .
+Ext2 volume labels can be at most 16 characters long; if
+.I volume-label
+is longer than 16 characters,
+.B e2label
+will truncate it and print a warning message. For other file systems that
+support online label manipulation and are mounted
+.B e2label
+will work as well, but it will not attempt to truncate the
+.I volume-label
+at all.
+.PP
+It is also possible to set the volume label using the
+.B \-L
+option of
+.BR tune2fs (8).
