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. Other cloud services manage only their own tags.

• Log in to the management console and choose Management & Governance > Tag Management Service. Set predefined tags on the TMS console.
• A tag consists of a key and value. You can add only one value for each key.
• Each DB instance can have up to 20 tags.

Editing a Tag

1. In the instance list, click the target instance name.
2. Click the Tags tab and click Edit Tag.
3. In the displayed dialog box on the right, click Add Tag, enter a tag key and value, and click OK.
   • The tag key must be unique. It must consist of 1 to 128 characters and can include letters, digits, spaces, and the following characters: _ . : = + - @. It cannot start or end with a space, or start with _sys_.
   • The tag value (optional) can consist of up to 255 characters and can include letters, digits, spaces, and the following characters: _ . : / = + - @.
