+=== Expiration times ===
+Slivers have expiration times. Expiration times are set by local aggregate policy. Generally
+ - `geni_allocated` sliver expiration times are short (minutes)
+ - `geni_provisioned` sliver expiration times are longer (days)
+ - All expiration times are limited by the expiration time of presented certificates and credentials
+
+
+When a sliver expires, the aggregate deletes the sliver automatically. This includes stopping resources and freeing the reservation.

 === `geni_best_effort` ===
  {{{geni_best_effort: <XML-RPC boolean 1 or 0, default false (0)>}}}
