Resource Management:Use OOS to inherit tags from ECS instances for the resources of the ECS instances at a time

Procedure

1. Log on to the OOS console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Automated Task > Public Template.

3. In the top navigation bar, select the desired region.

   Note

   By default, OOS deployed in a region can be used to manage resources only in this region. For example, OOS deployed in the China (Hangzhou) region can be used to manage ECS instances only in this region. However, OOS provides a method to manage resources deployed in other regions. If you want to call API operations in other regions, specify the region ID in the ACS::ExecuteAPI action. We recommend that you do not use this method. Therefore, in this example, you must make sure that the region in which OOS is deployed is the same as the region in which the ECS instances you want to manage reside. For more information about the limits on OOS, see Limits.

4. On the Public Template page, find the ACS-TAG-ExtendEcsInstanceTagsByInputParams template and click Create Execution.

5. In the Basic Information step, configure the parameters and click Next Step: Parameter Settings.

   In this example, default values are retained for the parameters in the Basic Information step.

   Note

   The default value of Execution Mode is Automatic, which indicates that all tasks defined in the template are automatically run in sequence.

6. In the Parameter Settings step, configure the parameters and click Next Step: OK.

   1. Set the RegionId parameter to the region where the desired ECS instances reside.

   2. For the TargetInstance parameter, select the ECS instances.

      Multiple methods are provided to select the ECS instances. You can select a method based on your business requirements. In this example, the Specify Instance Tags method is used to select the ECS instances to which the tag team:dev is added.

   3. In the TagKeys field, enter the tag key that you want to inherit from the ECS instances.

      In this example, the tag key team is entered. You can enter multiple tag keys.

   4. Set the ResourceTypes parameter to the desired resource type.

      Supported resource types include disk, snapshot, eni, eip, and image. You can select multiple resource types. In this example, all resource types are selected.

   5. Choose whether to turn on the switch Whether to overwrite the tag value if the tag key is the same.

      In this example, the switch is turned on. This way, if the tag keys are the same but the tag values are different, the new tag value overwrites the original tag value.

   6. Keep the default settings for the RateControl and OOSAssumeRole parameters.

7. In the OK step, confirm the settings and click Create.
