I think I am missing something, I don't see anything about the above 
type of labels in the mkswap man page.  I tried-changing 
LABEL=SWAP-i2o/hda3 to LABEL=SWAP-i2o/hdb3, and the subsequent swapon failed
[root at sm init.d]# /sbin/mkswap -c -v1 /dev/i2o/hdb3
Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 1612148 kB
...
[root at sm init.d]# /sbin/swapon -av
swapon on LABEL=SWAP-i2o/hdb3
swapon: cannot find the device for LABEL=SWAP-i2o/hdb3

Did I miss something in the man page?
