I'm currently working on improving our monitoring with IOS-XR and I noticed a limitation on IP SLA tag lenght which is not an issue on IOS-XE or NX-OS. The tag lenght is limited to 16 characters long.
ipsla
operation 1000
type icmp echo
tag TEST5678TEST5678xxxx
source address 192.0.2.1
destination address 192.0.2.2
timeout 1500
frequency 2
!

schedule operation 1000
start-time now
life forever

Here is an SNMP walk on the device:
snmpwalk -v 2c -c secret_comm asr9k.lab.org SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.42.1.2.1.1.3.1000
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.42.1.2.1.1.3.1000 = STRING: "TEST5678TEST5678"
We are trying to find a workaround to this limitation. My colleague found an IOS command that could help:
ip sla monitor snmp extend tag
I can't find the equivalent for IOS-XR. Is is a platform limitation or not?
