I've never trusted in labels. Use the long device names instead. I know the advanteges of labels but in server environement it doesn't give you too much. If the devices are changing too often in a server that means bigger problems.
I've never had an issue with Disk Labels, unless I put in another disk with the same labels. Which is why I _always_ customize my disk labels for each system. I also tend to use LVM on servers as well, just for the volume organization features (not for any RAID though -- I rely on hardware for that).
