# FSx OpenZFS file systems should copy tags to backups and volumes
 
## Description{% #description %}

This control verifies whether an Amazon FSx for OpenZFS file system is set up to copy tags to its backups and volumes.

Maintaining an inventory and identifying your IT assets are key elements of effective governance and security. Tags enable you to categorize AWS resources by various criteria, such as purpose, ownership, or environment. This becomes especially useful when managing multiple resources of the same type, allowing you to quickly locate specific resources based on the tags assigned to them.
