VM tags are metadata stored with the VM which can provide valuable operational insight into business-relevant data such as the machine’s function, organization alignment, regional and service level characteristics as well as security and application related information.
VM tags can be accessed by help desk and operations teams through a GUI or programmatically by IT staff for planning and reporting purposes. Additional value can be leveraged using tags to drive policy decisions such as data protection and security products.
Powered by the SovLabs Module Framework, the VM Tagging Module provides a simple, comprehensive and flexible method for driving a rich set of metadata using VM tags and categories with vRealize Automation.
