Hi helix84 & Seth, Just out of curiousity, is there a particular reason why you wouldn't just use the "Access" Step instead of "hacking" the same thing via a temporary withdrawal & reinstate? The "Access" step already lets you specify that READ access wouldn't start until a particular date has passed. But, maybe I'm missing something about your particular use case?
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Embargo#Embargo-AccessStep As noted in my other response to this thread, this functionality seems to already exist as part of the optional "Access" step (unless I'm misunderstanding something here?) http://dspace.2283337.n4.nabble.com/Advanced-Embargo-Dark-Metadata-tp4677498p4677503.html - Tim On 4/21/2015 10:55 AM, helix84 wrote: > On Tue, Apr 21, 2015 at 5:45 PM, Robbins, Seth David > <srobb...@illinois.edu <mailto:srobb...@illinois.edu>> wrote: > > We do what Helix describes, but we¹re looking for another way.
