Command: vol

  VOL displays the disk volume label and serial number, if it exists.

Syntax:

  VOL [drive]
  VOL [/?]
      drive  Specifies the drive letter to display the volume
             label, e.g. C: and the serial number

Options:

  /?  Shows the help.

Comments:

  Each drive letter can have an own volume label. You can create it
  with LABEL and FORMAT drive /V:LABELNAME. The name cannot be longer
  than 11 characters.
  The serial number is shown by DIR and LABEL independent
  if the drive has a label set.
  VOL is a command internal to command.com and needs no other file
  in order to work.

Examples:

  To obtain a partition:
  fdisk                Follow instructions. Option 4 shows the volume
                       label (when there already exists one)
  format c: /V:DRV_C   Formats drive C: and gives the label DRV_C
  label c:             Shows drive C: and its label DRV_C and asks if
                       you want to create a new label
  vol c:               Shows drive C: and its label DRV_C or a new one
                       created by format or label
