Creating tags

[EcoStruxureIT]

Tags can be created in the Configure Tags dialog box accessed from Tools> Configure Tags. When tags have been created, they are subsequently available in the application to be assigned to equipment in the floor and rack layout.

1. In the Configure Tags dialog box, select Add to create new tags or categories.
2. Select if the tag is a strict requirement that must be met to be able to add a piece of equipment to a rack*.
3. Select a tag from the list and select Up or Down to move it and create a hierarchical structure according to your preferences.
4. If necessary, select a tag or category from the list and select Edit to modify it.
5. If necessary, select a tag or category from the list and select Remove to delete it from the list.

*This setting controls the behavior of the Add to best rack feature.

If you select that a matching tag is a strict requirement, the tag assigned to a piece of equipment must match the tag assigned to the rack to which you are adding it. The provisioning match message: Rack tags support equipment tags will show with a red LED symbol next to it.

If you select that a matching tag is not a strict requirement, the tag assigned to a piece of equipment does not have to match the tag assigned to the rack, but it is recommended that it does. The provisioning match message will show with a yellow LED symbol next to it.
