VM only puts a VTOC on a volume when you initialize it. It will gladly accept VM labels from other systems, MVS labels, VSE labels, even Linux labels. When running MVS under VM, I always let the MVS people label thei r own volumes even when they have duplicate labels. And it is okay with any of these systems that when they both know about a volume, that they both kno w it by the same label.
