/usr/sbin/atohexlabel [human-readable-sensitivity-label]
/usr/sbin/atohexlabel -c [human-readable-clearance]
atohexlabel converts a human readable label into an internal text representation that is safe for storing in a public object. If no option is supplied, the label is assumed to be a sensitivity label.
Internal conversions can later be parsed to their same value. This internal form is often hexadecimal. The converted label is written to the standard output file. If no human readable label is specified, the label is read from the standard input file. The expected use of this command is emergency repair of labels that are stored in internal databases.
