4.3. Filtering systems by tags, SAP workloads, and groups in the advisor service

Filter results in the advisor service UI by custom group tags, SAP workloads, and Satellite groups to quickly locate and view the systems you want to focus on. In the advisor service, access tag, workload, and group filters using the Filter results box, located in the upper left corner of the page in the Red Hat Insights for Red Hat Enterprise Linux application. The filter dropdown menu shows all of the tags associated with the account, allowing you to click one or more parameters by which to filter. To filter by tags in the advisor service, complete the following steps:

  3. Select one or more tags to filter by SAP workloads, Satellite host group, or a custom group. Applied tags are visible next to the Filter results box.
