The volser parameter can be one of the following:

  • Standard 6 character length volume serial number (volser) without the media and domain type (for example, if the full media label was ABC123L8, the volser would be ABC123).
  • Raw label (volser + media type + domain type) as shown on the media label (such as ABC123L8).
