Grid Node Selection Using Tags

This release provides an enhanced mechanism for the selection of server resources during the grid creation process.

• You work with new dialogs and management interfaces to tag servers in the available server pool using user-defined criteria.
• During the Grid Create workflow, you select one or more tags to determine the pool of server resources for building a new grid. In addition, you can select the individual servers to create a grid.

You can manage servers using tags in a new Tag tab on the BFC Administration page. Grid and Server pages are enhanced to let you assign tags and display their usage.
