Example definitions for service families in tag-based mapping

When preparing to map application services based on tags, create tag categories that contain tags with similar use. Define a tag-based service family and the tags you want to use for mapping. In addition to tag categories, you can also define tag values to narrow the criteria for the service candidates created by Service Mapping. Use these examples for guidance.

For detailed information about defining service families in tag-based mapping, see Prepare for mapping application services based on tags.

注:

Starting with Service Mapping Plus version 1.16.3, take advantage of the Tag-based Service Mapping workspace to efficiently map you application services. For more information, see Tag-based mapping in the Service Mapping Workspace and Tag-based discovery for the Service Mapping Workspace.

表 : 1. Examples of defining tag-based mapping criteria for service families

Definitions for service family	Category	Key	Value (optional)	Result
Example 1: one tag category, no values	Environment	Env	Not defined	Service Mapping creates a service candidate for each tag value for the Env key. Each service candidate contains only CIs with the same value for the Env key.
Example 2: one tag category, one value	Environment	Env	Production	Service Mapping creates the service candidate containing only CIs that have the Env tag key with the Production tag value.
Example 3: one tag category, two values	Environment	Env	Staging,Production	Service Mapping creates two service candidates: One containing CIs that have the Production tag value; another containing CIs that have the Staging tag value.
Example 4: two tag categories, no values	Environment Application	Env App	Not defined	Service Mapping creates a service candidate for each combination of tag values for all defined tag keys.
Example 5: two tag categories, two values for each category	Environment Application	Env App	Production,Staging HR,Finance	Service Mapping creates four service candidates: production::hr, production::finance, staging::hr, staging::finance.
