Propagation of tags as deferred actions

You can enable the propagation of tags as deferred action (or in asynchronous manner).

You must set this property atlas.tasks.enabled = true. By default, this is disabled. You can set the this property in Cloudera Manager under Atlas Server Advanced Configuration Snippet (Safety Valve) for conf/atlas-application.properties.

While the background task is processing the tag propagation request, you can view the notification of propagation of tags in the Atlas UI on the Entities details page. The Task tab displays the progress of this request.
