Otherwise, the volume does not have an alias. • A volume alias is a name. Name can be up to 63 bytes and is case-insensitive. You can use any printable Unicode character except for First and last characters cannot be a period, hyphen, or colon. Fewer characters are accepted for this field if you type the value as a Unicode character string, which takes up a variable number of bytes, depending on the specific character.

Volumes can be tagged with new or predefined tags, and a volume can have more than one tag associated to it. This feature makes it easier for the group administrator to manage a group with a large number of volumes. Smart tags can be either simple tags or extended tags: 134 About Volumes
