    125125  - `geni_single_allocation`: <XML-RPC boolean 1/0, default 0>: When true (not default), when performing one of (`Describe`, `Allocate`, `Renew`, `Provision`, `Delete`), such an AM requires you to include either the slice urn or the urn of all the slivers in the same state. If you attempt to run one of those operations on just some slivers in a given state, such an AM will return an error.
    126 For example, at an AM where `geni_single_allocation` is true you must `Provision` all `geni_allocated` slivers at once. If you supply a list of sliver URNs to `Provision` that is only 'some' of the `geni_allocated` slivers for this slice at this AM, then the AM will return an error.
    127 Similarly, such an aggregate would return an error from `Describe` if you request a set of sliver URNs that is only some of the `geni_provisioned` slivers.
    128 
    129   - `geni_allocate`: A string, one of fixed set of possible values. Default is `geni_single`. This option defines whether this AM allows adding slivers to slices at an AM (i.e. calling Allocate() multiple times, without first deleting the allocated slivers). Possible values:
    130    - `geni_single`: Performing multiple Allocates without a delete is an error condition because the aggregate only supports a single sliver per slice or does not allow incrementally adding new slivers. This is the AM API v2 behavior.
    131    - `geni_disjoint`: Additional calls to Allocate must be disjoint from slivers allocated with previous calls (no references or dependencies on existing slivers). The topologies must be disjoint in that there can be no connection or other reference from one topology to the other.

    132131   - `geni_many`: Multiple slivers can exist and be incrementally added, including those which connect or overlap in some way. New aggregates should strive for this capability.
