Issue/Introduction

In the Controller probe -> "Setup" tab -> "Misc." tab, there are 2 fields, "User tag 1" and "User tag 2" :

  • User tags are user-defined tags which are used as a grouping and locating mechanism.
  • These tags are displayed in various lists in Infrastructure Manager.
  • What are the restrictions for inserting data in "User tag 1" and "User tag 2" fields, e.g., maximum number of characters, special characters, and spaces?

Environment

  • UIM 8.5.1 or higher
  • robot (controller) 7.80 or later

Resolution

The user tags info are recorded in UIM DB, in CM_NIMBUS_ROBOT table, inside the "user_tag_1" and "user_tag_2" columns.

These fields are defined as VARCHAR(256). So they can accept alphanumeric characters, with a limit of 256 characters.
