NAME


knife-tag - The man page for the knife tag subcommand.

A tag is a custom description that is applied to a node. A tag, once applied, can be
helpful when managing nodes using knife or when building recipes by providing alternate
methods of grouping similar types of information.

The knife tag subcommand is used to apply tags to nodes on a Chef server.
