This section describes how to add tags to existing file systems. You can also add tags when creating file systems.

Tags are used to identify and classify file systems.

Notes and Constraints

  • A tag consists of a tag key and a tag value.
    • A tag key can contain a maximum of 128 characters. It can contain letters, digits, and spaces representable in UTF-8 and special characters (_.:=+-@). It cannot start or end with a space and cannot be left empty. Tag keys starting with _sys_ are system tags, and you cannot start a tag key with _sys_.
    • A tag value can contain a maximum of 255 characters. It can contain letters, digits, and spaces representable in UTF-8 and special characters (_.:=+-@) and can be left empty. It cannot start or end with a space.
  • You can add a maximum of 20 tags to a file system.
  • Tag keys of the same file system must be unique.
  • Once created, tag keys of a file system cannot be edited. You can only edit the tag values. You can delete tags.
