In the PlateSpin Web Interface, the Workloads page might display a long list of workloads. Searching through these workloads to manage operations for similar workloads can be time-consuming. To overcome this issue, you can create tags for various workload categories, departments, or other logical associations appropriate to your environment.
For information about creating, modifying, or deleting workload tags, see Section 8.1, Creating and Managing Workload Tags.
After you create tags, they are available at the bottom of the Edit Target Details page where you can assign a tag to the appropriate workloads. The Workloads page includes a Tag column where the single tag you associate with a workload is displayed. You can sort on this column to group similar workloads together. This enables you to easily locate and run operations on the tagged workloads at the same time.
NOTE:When you export a workload with a tag setting to a new server, the tag settings persist.

In the Forge Web Interface, click Workloads.
In the workload list, select the workload you want to tag and click Configure Protection.
