Tag

Scenarios

If you have a large number of cloud resources, you can add different tags to the resources to quickly identify them and use these tags to easily manage your resources.

If your organization has configured tag policies for ELB, add tags to load balancers based on the tag policies. If you add a tag that does not comply with the tag policies, load balancers may fail to be created. Contact your organization administrator to learn more about tag policies.
