9.6.4.4 Tagging Metric Observations

In each Exadata database server and storage server you can define a set of metric tags, which are included in every observation in the metric stream. These tags can help you to organize and group observations generated by numerous Exadata servers.

You can configure metric tags by setting the metricStreamTags attribute to a valid JSON string containing tag and value pairs as follows:

metricStreamTags='{"tag1":"value1"[,"tag2":"value2"]...}'

For example:

DBMCLI> ALTER DBSERVER metricStreamTags='{"application":"personnel","department":"HR"}'
