Managing Tags

Scenarios

Tag Management Service (TMS) enables you to use tags on the management console to manage resources. TMS works with other cloud services to manage tags. TMS manages tags globally, and other cloud services manage their own tags.

  • You are advised to set predefined tags on the TMS console.
  • A tag consists of a key and value. You can add only one value for each key.
  • A maximum of 10 tags can be added for each DB instance.

Adding a Tag

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region and a project.
  3. Click Service List. Under Database, click Relational Database Service. The RDS console is displayed.
  4. On the Instance Management page, click the target DB instance.
  5. On the Tags page, click Add Tag. In the displayed dialog box, enter a tag key and a tag value, and click OK.

    • The tag key must be unique and must consist of 1 to 36 characters. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
    • The tag value can be empty or consist of 1 to 43 characters. Only letters, digits, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.
