By default, four denial reasons are available in IRM:

  • Legal hold

  • Government Investigation

  • General Investigation

  • Contents associated with an active matter

If your organization requires it, you can create a new denial reason:

  1. In Library Manager, expand the cluster, then the library, and then Metadata.

  2. Under Metadata, right-click the Denial Reason node and select Add.

  3. In the Add Metadata dialog, update the fields as specified in the Denial Reasons Metadata Fields table below.

NOTE: The entire content of the Add Metadata dialog corresponds to a single row in a metadata table.
