Manual tagging

To get started

1. Go to your AWS Management Console.

2. Go to the migrated resources. Example: Amazon RDS.

3. Choose Add tags.

4. Enter map-migrated as the Tag key.

   Note

   The Migration Acceleration Program requires that you tag resources with the map-migrated. This tag is automatically activated for you as a cost allocation tag. Tags that are automatically activated don't count towards your cost allocation tag quota. For more information, see Quotas and restrictions.

5. Enter and replace your MPE ID with the tag value you want to apply to the migrated workloads.

   Example:

   • If your MPE ID is 12345, use the value mig12345.

   • If your MPE ID is ABCDE12345, use the value migABCDE12345.

   Depending on your migrated resource and MPE ID, the tag value can be any of the following:

   • mig5-digit MPE ID

   • sap5-digit MPE ID

   • oracle5-digit MPE ID

   • mig10 alphanumeric characters MPE ID

   • sap10 alphanumeric characters MPE ID

   • oracle10 alphanumeric characters MPE ID

   Note

   Use lowercase letters for the mig, sap, and oracle prefixes and uppercase letters for the alphanumeric MPE IDs (long MPE IDs). For more information about what tag values you should use, see Tagging key combinations. For more information about your MPE ID, see MPE ID length.

6. Choose Save.
