I set labels on each volume in multivol archive:
# tar  --format=3Dposix -V Label -L 1000 -cMf /tmp/VOL1.tar
/tmp/long_length_fname_files

Next, I use commands to read label from these volumes:
# tar --test-label -f VOL1.tar
# tar --test-label -f VOL2.tar
.....
but no output after this commands.

I see volume label only on second volume via text editor(or grep file),
but "tar --test-label" don't output anything

For gnu tar format everything is ok, but for posix tar format - can't
read label.

How to read volume label in this archive?
