    On an extension rule record, you can request an extension for the Deferred Until date only if the rule is in the Approved state. You might request this extension to a rule if you find a large number of records created by the rule are not being resolved by its Deferred until date, the date when the remediation task stops accepting new AVIs. The extension updates the exception rule so it automatically extends the deferral date on your existing rule.

    You can also request an extension from the Vulnerability Response Workspaces. For more information, see Request an extension for a deferred vulnerable item in the Vulnerability Manager workspace.
