Table Of Contents
• A simple tag has no values. For example, the tag “Backup” indicates that the volume is used as a backup volume without going
into further detail.
• An extended tag uses a main tag and a value. For example, the tag “Applications” with the value “Sharepoint” indicates that the
volume information is used within that application.
Within Group Manager, only group administrators are allowed to create, rename, and delete tags. However, administrators with write
privileges for the volume can assign tags to the volume. See the Dell EqualLogic Group Manager CLI Reference Guide for more
information.
