Assign tags to a cluster

Beginning with ONTAP 9.14.1, you can use ONTAP System Manager to assign tags to a cluster to identify objects as belonging to a category, such as projects or cost centers.

About this task

You can assign a tag to a cluster. First, you need to define and add the tag. Then, you can also edit or delete the tag.

Tags can be added when you create a cluster, or they can be added later.

You define a tag by specifying a key and associating a value to it using the format “key:value”. For example: “dept:engineering” or “location:san-jose”.

The following should be considered when you create tags:

  • Keys have a minimum length of one character and cannot be null. Values can be null.

  • A key can be paired with multiple values by separating the values with a comma, for example, “location:san-jose,toronto”

  • Tags can be used for multiple resources.

  • Keys must start with a lowercase letter.

  1. In ONTAP System Manager, click Cluster to view the overview page.
