You can use the p4 label -i option to import a label specification from a text file. Then you can use the labelsync command to sync the files into that newly created label.

If you want to lock the label, you can use the p4 label -o option to write out the label by redirecting it to a file, then use something like sed, perl, etc to replace unlocked with locked in that file and then use label -i to import the edited file and that will lock the label.
