Volume Manager has to do with managing the disks, raid, striping, plexes, etc....
Veritas Filesystem is just that. Anything that you need to do to manage the data on the disks. Such as mkfs, mount, online resizing and defragmenting. It also gives you control over I/O, caching, and allocation.
Remember:
VM is managing the disks.

E2LABEL(8) System Manager's Manual E2LABEL(8) NAME
e2label - Change the label on an ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystem SYNOPSIS
e2label device [ volume-label ] DESCRIPTION
e2label will display or change the volume label on the ext2, ext3, or ext4 filesystem located on device. If the optional argument volume-label is not present, e2label will simply display the current volume label. If the optional argument volume-label is present, then e2label will set the volume label to be volume-label. Ext2 volume labels can be at most 16 characters long; if volume-label is longer than 16 characters, e2label will truncate it and print a warning message. It is also possible to set the volume label using the -L option of tune2fs(8). AUTHOR
e2label was written by Theodore Ts'o (tytso@mit.edu). AVAILABILITY
e2label is part of the e2fsprogs package and is available from http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net. SEE ALSO
