Configure your smart folders to automatically create sub-folders based on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud tags and labels.
Instead of manually creating child folders, you can automatically create sub-folders
for each value of an AWS tag, Azure tag, or GCP label that's assigned to an Amazon
EC2 instance, Amazon Workspace, Azure VM, or GCP VM instance. For information on how
to apply tag/labels to your computers, refer to the documentation from your cloud
provider:
-
Google Cloude: Labeling resources.
Tag- and label-based sub-folders replace any existing manually created child folders
under the parent folder.
Procedure
- In the Server & Workload Protection console, right-click a smart folder and select Smart Folder Properties.
- In the main pane, near the bottom, select the Automatically create sub-folders for each value of a specific tag or label key check box.
- Select either the AWS, Azure, or GCP cloud vendor.
- Type the name of the AWS tag, Azure tag, or GCP label key. Sub-folders are automatically created for each of the tag or label values.
- Click Save.
Note
Empty sub-folders can appear if an AWS tag or GCP label value is not being used anymore. To remove them, right-click the smart folder and select Synchronize Smart Folder.
