Tags serve as a way to "group" devices in Unimus. A single device can be tagged with multiple tags, from multiple sources.
Tags can then be used for:
- Device Access restrictions
- targets in Mass Config Push
- apply Backups Filters to devices
- apply Per-Tag Connectors to devices
- apply Sensitive Data Stripping policies
- a search criteria in Config Search
- etc.
Tags can be applied to devices from:
- manually applied to multiple devices in the Tags screen
- manually applied to individual devices in the Devices screen
- applied to all devices of a Zone in the Zones screen
Deleting Tags
Since Tags can be used for many purposes across Unimus, deleting a Tag can have severe consequences:
- Removing a Tag which is used to for Device Access restrictions for any account(s) will cause a change in the access visibility for the affected account(s).
This can cause an account to lose access to devices, or gain access to the entire system if this Tag was the last Tag for the account. - If the Tag was used as a Config Push target, it will be removed from all the Config Push presets that used it.
Devices which were brought into the targets from the Tag will no longer be present in the relevant push presets. - If the Tag was used for Backups Filters, the Backup Filter will not be deleted, but will no longer apply to devices that used to be tagged with the Tag
- Per-Tag Connector settings belonging to the Tag will be deleted.
This will cause the affected devices to use the default connectors. - Sensitive Data Stripping policies associated with the Tag will be deleted.
