You can add user-defined, shared tags to objects such as
applications, components, agents, and resources. If you manage many
objects, you can use tags to organize objects so that the user interface
is easier to navigate. You can also use tags to simplify deployment
operations.
Procedure
- Browse to the object, and then hover the mouse pointer
over the object, and click the Add Tag icon
that is displayed. A window opens where you can select or create a tag.
- In the new window, take one of these actions:
- Select an existing tag from the list.
- Click Create New Tag to create a tag.
Type a tag name and select a tag color. Optionally, type a description
for the tag. Click Save.
What to do next
- To organize a list of objects by tag, click the list arrow. Flat
list is selected by default. Select By Tag to
organize the objects into a hierarchical list that is sorted by tag.
- To tag multiple objects at a time or to remove tags from multiple
objects at a time, select the check boxes to left of the objects.
Then, click Actions, and select Add
Tag or Remove Tag.
- To view all objects that have the same tag, click Show
Filters at the top of any list of objects. In the tags
field, type the name of a tag, and then press Enter. Only the objects
that are tagged with the exact text that you type in the tags field
are displayed. If a tag name contains spaces, surround the name with
double quotation marks when you type it in the tags field.
- To select all objects that have the same tag, first filter the
objects as explained in the previous section. Then, click Select
All and select Matching Filter.
