vSphere Tag Service
The
vSphere
Automation
Tag Service
supports the definition of tags that you can associate with vSphere objects or vSphere
Automation
resources. Starting with vSphere 6.5, the
vSphere
Automation
APIs provide programmatic access to creating and managing
vSphere tags in your vSphere inventory. For example, if you want to tag your virtual
machines by guest operating system type, you can create a category called
operating system
. You can specify that it applies to virtual
machines only and that only a single tag can be applied to a virtual machines at any
time. This category can include the following tags: Windows
,
Linux
, and Mac OS
.
