NetApp OnCommand Unified Manager_annotations demo

OnCommand Unified Manager demo by NetApp TME, Dhiman Chakraborty. In this session we'll look at how annotations can be used in Unified Manager to tag storage objects in order to facilitate impact analysis and content specific reporting. To understand this better let's take a look at a scenario where we'll create an annotation named Application and group objects based on RHEL with annotation values: Exchange, Databases and Miscellaneous Applications. Each of the values will be defined by dynamic rules. To start off, let's navigate to Administration, Manage Annotation in the dropdown menu. Click on Add Annotation and create an annotation named Application and add a description to it. Then click Save and Close. Now that you have created an annotation called Application we will add values to it. This value will be Exchange. Once done, click on Add. Now add the second value called Database and once done, click on Add. We have created two values, Exchange and Database. It's time to associate rules, click on Annotation Rules and click on Add Name the rule. Here we will name it Exchange Rule the target object is Volume Apply the annotation to Application, then the value is Exchange. You can create different conditions as shown here. Now we have created a rule for the Exchange value so let's create a rule for the Database value.
