Tagging a Snapshot

Manage tags for a File Storage snapshot.

Apply tags to your resources to help organize them according to your business needs. Apply tags at the time you create a resource, or update the resource later with the wanted tags. For general information about applying tags, see Resource Tags.

    1. Open the navigation menu and click Storage. Under File Storage, click File Systems.
    2. In the List scope section, under Compartment, select a compartment.
    3. Click the name of the file system used to create the snapshot.
    4. On the file system's details page, under Resources, click Snapshots.
    5. In the Snapshots list, click the name of the snapshot that you're interested in.
    6. On the snapshot's details page, click the Tags tab to view or edit the existing tags.
    7. Click Add tags to add new tags.

  • Use the fs snapshot update command and include the optional parameters --defined-tags and --freeform-tags to manage a snapshot's tags:

    oci fs snapshot update --snapshot-id <snapshot_OCID> --defined-tags <defined_tags> --freeform-tags <freeform_tags>

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

  • Run the UpdateSnapshot operation to manage a snapshot's tags.
