About this tag
Data lifecycle management (DLM) in Microsoft Purview helps organizations govern their data from creation to deletion. A recent thread discusses the DLM Diagnostics MCP Server, an open-source tool from Microsoft that allows AI assistants to safely run read-only PowerShell diagnostics for troubleshooting Purview DLM issues. This server provides structured diagnostic results to accelerate root-cause analysis, addressing common problems like retention policy conflicts or disposal failures. The tool is designed for administrators who need to inspect DLM state without risking changes, bridging the gap between partial telemetry and full troubleshooting. It reflects Microsoft's focus on safe, AI-driven management of data lifecycle policies in enterprise environments.
