System Tags

System tags provide status information about the system, such as memory usage, performance metrics, and so on. They exist for the Client and the Gateway. You can change the Gateway System tags to perform alarming, history, and scaling, but you cannot change the Client tags.

Client and Gateway System Tags

Ignition comes with a number of predefined System tags to provide more information about the Client and the Gateway. In the Tag Browser, under the System folder, you can see several Client and Gateway tags.
