Adding a Tag Manually

Procedure

  1. Click the Add Tag Manually link in the Tag Maintenance screen.
    The Add Tag Manually dialog box shown in the following figure appears.

  2. Select a collector from the drop-down list in the Collector Name field. This associates the new tag with a specific collector.
  3. Enter the Source Address and Tag Name in the appropriate fields.
  4. Select the data store in the Data Store field.
  5. Select a Data Type from the drop-down list.
  6. If the tag is an Array tag, select the Is Array Tag option.
  7. For fixed string data types only, enter a value in the field adjacent to the Data Type field.
  8. Select Seconds, Milliseconds, or Microseconds in the Time Resolution field.
  9. Click OK to add the tag.
    Note: If you manually add a Server-to-Server tag, set the Time Adjustment field for the tag to the Adjust for Source Time Difference option after you add the tag. The Time Adjustment field is located on the Advanced tab in the Tag Maintenance screen. This field applies only to Server-to-Server tags that use a polled collection type.
