SUMMARY: disklabel on an HSZ52 unit?

most responses gave the answer of "disklabel -rw /dev/rrzXc HSZ50" - which
verifies what i was guessing.

Tom Blinn gave a detailed explanation:

It should not be any different. The HSZ exports to system software
a "disk view", that is, something that looks like a disk. It has
partitions, etc. Once you figure out the logical device name for
the logical disk you want to label, you just label it. The use of
a name like "HSG80" in the disklabel command is just to cause it to
read the logical disk configuration data to construct the default
partition sizes, kind of like using "RZxx".
