Predefined Object Tags
vRealize Operations Manager includes several predened object tags. It creates values for most of these tags
and assigns objects to the values.
For example, when you add an object, vRealize Operations Manager assigns it to the tag value for the
collector it uses and the kind of object that it is. It creates tag values if they do not already exist.
If a predened tag has no values, there is no object of that tag type. For example, if no applications are
dened in your vRealize Operations Manager instance, the applications tag has no tag values.
Each tag value appears with the number of objects that have that tag. Tag values that have no objects appear
with the value zero. You cannot delete the predened tags or tag values that vRealize Operations Manager
creates.

Tag Description
Collectors (Full Set) Each dened collector is a tag value. Each object is assigned
to the tag value for the collector that it uses when you add
the object to vRealize Operations Manager. The default
collector is vRealize Operations Manager Collector-

tier to an application, or an object to a tier in an application,
the tier is assigned to that tag value.

objects are assigned to the value when you give them a
schedule by adding or editing them.
Adapter Types Each adapter type is a tag value, and each object that uses
that adapter type is given the tag value.
Adapter Instances Each adapter instance is a tag value, and each object is
assigned the tag value for the adapter instance or instances
through which its metrics are collected.
Object Types Each type of object is a tag value, and each object is
assigned to the tag value for its type when you add the
