Managing Vault Tags

Scenarios

You can add tags to vaults based on their usage, project, environment, or other dimensions. Applying the same tag to vaults with similar attributes helps organize them for structured management.

For existing vaults, you can add, edit, or delete tags as needed. Tags are used only for filtering and managing vaults.

Principles

You can add, edit, or delete multiple tags for a vault. The changes take effect immediately. Vaults can be filtered by tag.

Tags are used only for classification and retrieval. They do not affect core functions such as backup execution, policy association, and data replication.

Vault tags support tag policies of Organizations. Tags that do not comply with the tag policies cannot be added to vaults.

Constraints

If your organization has enabled the tag policy for CBR, you must comply with the tag policy rules when adding tags for your vaults. Otherwise, vaults may fail to be created. Contact the organization administrator to learn more about the tag policies.

1. Log in to the CBR console. Click in the upper left corner and select a region.
2. On the Vaults tab, click the name of the target vault and then select the Tags tab.
   • Adding a tag
     1. Click Edit Tag in the upper left corner.
     2. In the displayed dialog box, enter the key and value of the new tag.

        Tags are key-value pairs, which are used to identify, classify, and search for vaults. You can add a maximum of 20 tags for a vault, and vault tags are only used to filter and manage vaults.

        Table 1 describes the parameters of a tag.
