Tag Management


What is Tag?

A tag is used to mark resources. You can use a tag to search for and aggregate resources. Specifically, you can quickly locate the required resources by tag type and tag name.
  • You can create tags with different colors, simple style, and brief description. You can also attach tags to resources and search resources by using tags. This will improve the search efficiency.
  • Two types of tag are available: admin tags and tenant tags.
    • Admin tags are created and owned by administrators, and can be attached to VM instances, volumes, hosts, baremetal instances, and elastic baremetal instances.
    • Tenant tags are created and owned by tenants, and can be attached to VM instances and volumes.
  • Currently, you can attach tags to or detach tags from VM instances, volumes, hosts, baremetal instances, and elastic baremetal instances.

Considerations

  • Admin tags are created and owned by administrators while tenant tags are created and owned by tenants.
  • Tags created by tenants can only be attached to resources of the corresponding tenants, while admin tags can be attached to all of the resources in the Cloud.
  • Administrators can detach or delete tenant tags.
  • Tags in a project are owned by the project. Therefore, everyone in the project, including the project manager, project administrator, and project member, can perform operations on these tags.
  • Currently, tag owners cannot be changed.
  • When you change a resource owner, all tenant tags attached to the resource will be detached. However, the admin tags are not affected.
  • After the Cloud is upgraded seamlessly, the existing tags will be updated accordingly and displayed in the latest way. If an exception occurs, refresh your browser or create a new tag.

Create a Tag

On the main menu of ZStack Cloud, choose Platform O&M > Tag Management > Tag. On the Tag page, click Create Tag. Then, the Create Tag page is displayed.

On the displayed page, set the following parameters:
  • Name: Enter a name for the tag.
    Note:
    • The tag name must be 1 to 20 characters in length.
    • The tag name is case sensitive.
    • A tag is unique. That is, the same role can have only one tag with the same name and color.
  • Color: Select the tag color.
