1. A method comprising:
- collecting, using instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium and executed on at least one processor, resource information associated with a plurality of virtual object resources of a virtual computing environment from at least one physical resource of the virtual computing environment, the virtual object resources executed on a plurality of hardware resources of the virtual computing environment;
identifying, using the instructions executed on the at least one processor, one or more of the virtual object resources that execute one or more executable applications provided by the virtual computing environment;
generating, using the instructions executed on the at least one processor, a tag for each virtual object resource, the tag including an identifier of the one or more executable applications executed by the virtual object resource, the virtual object resource comprising at least one logical configuration construct of a storage partition, a tenant partition, a port group, a virtual private cloud, a virtual local area network, or a private virtual data center; and
classifying, using the instructions executed on the at least one processor, one or more of the virtual object resources that executes one of the executable applications using the identifier of the one or more executable applications included in each of the tags.

Abstract
An operations management system includes a processing system and a memory for storing an operations management application, which is executed by the processing system to collect resource information associated with hardware resources and virtual objects of a virtual computing environment. The system identifies, for one or more services provided by the virtual computing environment, the hardware resources and the virtual objects that execute the services, generates a tag for each resource indicating which services are executed by that resource, and stores the collected resource information for each resource and its respective tag in the memory.

13. A non-transitory, computer readable medium storing information and instructions that when executed by at least one processor, is operable to perform at least the following:
-
collecting resource information associated with a plurality of virtual object resources of a virtual computing environment from at least one physical resource of the virtual computing environment, the virtual object resources executed on a plurality of hardware resources of the virtual computing environment; identifying one or more of the virtual object resources that execute one or more executable applications provided by the virtual computing environment; generating, a tag for each virtual object resource, the tag including an identifier of the one or more executable applications executed by the virtual object resource, the virtual object resource comprising at least one logical configuration construct of a storage partition, a tenant partition, a port group, a virtual private cloud, a virtual local area network, or a private virtual data center; and classifying one or more of the virtual object resources that executes one of the executable applications using the identifier of the one or more executable applications included in each of the tags. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)
