Managing Tags

Tags facilitate DCS instance identification and management.

You can add tags to an instance when creating it or add, modify, or delete tags on the details page of a created instance. Each instance can have a maximum of 20 tags.

A tag consists of a tag key and a tag value. Table 1 lists the tag key and value requirements.
