[Feature Request] Edit vSphere Tag combination in backup job

Post by jleysten »

Hello!

When we use VMware vSphere tags for source selections in a backup job (tag combination) and we want to add a Tag to the existing combination, this is not possible.
We have to remove the current tag combination and create the combination again. I want to request an "edit" possibility in the tag combination settings. Our combination is 5 - 6 different tags for selecting VMs in the job so it would be nice if we can edit them.

Best regards, Jeroen

Hello Jeroen

Thanks for the request. We will count you as +1. Let's see how popular this request get's.

May I ask, how often do you require to change the tag combination in your job settings?
Maybe we can provide a PowerShell script to make it easier.

Best,

+100 from me too. I just had to edit about 40 jobs and I had remove and add tag combinations. Also, I know when you add a tag combination you can see what vCenter it points to before you save the changes. We have multiple vCenters, so it also makes it hard to tell which vCenter the tag/tag combos are pointing to.
