There was a patch to do that. But AFAICT this patch was never merged. If you are interested look at
[Repost] btrfslabel - kernel space
https://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-btrfs/2010/1/4/6683133/thread
IIRC the user space utility, in case of a *unmounted* filesystem, is able to change a LABEL without patching the kernel.

Hi,
thanks for your reply.
You mentioned that it should be possible to change the label of an

filesystem, but you didn't mentioned how. :( I can't find a command that
does that.
True, I have to admit that my reply was not very clear.
The patches of which I posted the link, contains the command btrfslabel which is able to change a label.
Unfortunately the patches were never accepted.
If you are interested I can update and repost the patches.

Hi,
ah ok :) I thought there is a way without the patch to change the label of unmounted fs.
I am interested! If it is not to mutch work for you it would be great to have that feature.
It's kind of strange that it is not possible to do that with the default btrfs utilities, because it's such an elementary thing.
Thanks again for your help!
Regards,
Felix
