https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Open-Q-A/Automatic-tags-for-hosts-belonging-to-different-applications/m-p/114017#M9243 <P>Hi,<BR /><BR />At the end of this year, our customer is going to migrate their hosts to a new data center.<BR />Nowadays we've created several manual tags for applications, services and hosts which we know is not a good practise because we can loose configurations when the hosts are migrated to the new data center.<BR /><BR />The problem is that several applications share process groups, hosts and databases. So, for example, we can´t create host groups because of that; I mean, a host can belong to two or more applications.<BR />For example: a particular host belongs to three different applications. So we have created manual tags with the name of the three applications.<BR /><BR />Could you give us any directive in other to update this?<BR /><BR />Let us know if you have any question<BR /><BR />Regards,<BR />Elena.<BR /><BR /><BR /></P> Tue, 23 Jun 2020 08:45:08 GMT elena_renedo1 2020-06-23T08:45:08Z https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Open-Q-A/Automatic-tags-for-hosts-belonging-to-different-applications/m-p/114017#M9243 <P>Hi,<BR /><BR />At the end of this year, our customer is going to migrate their hosts to a new data center.<BR />Nowadays we've created several manual tags for applications, services and hosts which we know is not a good practise because we can loose configurations when the hosts are migrated to the new data center.<BR /><BR />The problem is that several applications share process groups, hosts and databases.

Then, you can tag each Host Group and automatically its components (Services and Process Groups) with the Application names – if they support multiple Applications.</P><P>Sia</P><P><BR /></P> Wed, 24 Jun 2020 14:02:16 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Open-Q-A/Automatic-tags-for-hosts-belonging-to-different-applications/m-p/114018#M9244 sia_h 2020-06-24T14:02:16Z
