Get-EVClassificationPolicy

Get-EVClassificationPolicy returns a list of all the classification policies that are configured in an Enterprise Vault site. You can also return the properties of a specific classification policy using the -Name parameter.

Get-EVClassificationPolicy is provided by Symantec.EnterpriseVault.PowerShell.AdminAPI.dll, which is loaded by the Enterprise Vault Management Shell.

Syntax

Get-EVClassificationPolicy [[-SiteId] <String>] [[-Name] <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Parameters

Table: Get-EVClassificationPolicy parameters

Parameter

Description

-SiteId

The ID of the Enterprise Vault site for which to return the classification policy details. If you omit this parameter, and the cmdlet cannot determine the ID by looking in the registry, then Get-EVClassificationPolicy prompts you to enter the required ID.

You can use Get-EVSite to obtain the site ID.

-Name

The name of a specific classification policy whose properties you want to return.

Examples
  • Get-EVClassificationPolicy

    Returns a list of all the classification policies that are configured in the Enterprise Vault site. As no site ID is specified, the cmdlet first looks for it in the registry and then, if it cannot find the ID there, prompts you for it.

  • Get-EVClassificationPolicy -SiteId 13E...EV.example.com

    Returns a list of all the classification policies that are configured in the specified Enterprise Vault site.

  • Get-EVClassificationPolicy -SiteId 13E...EV.example.com -Name "Classification policy"

    Returns the properties of the classification policy that is named "Classification policy". For example:

    Name                   : Classification policy
    EntryId                : 125...EV.example.com
    IsADefaultPolicy       : True
    DuringIndexing         : True
    DetermineRC            : True
    RCDuringDeletion       : True
    RCDuringExpiry         : True
    PreventRCDuringMove    : True
    AllowRCOnRecTypeChange : True
    Description            : Classification policy
    SiteId                 : 13E...EV.example.com
