    529529Aggregate Managers SHOULD return an error code of `13` (`UNSUPPORTED`) if they do not support a given `action` for a given resource. An AM SHOULD constrain actions based on the current operational state of the resource. This is a fast synchronous operation, and MAY start long-running sliver transitions whose status can be queried using `Status`. This method should only be called, and is only valid, when the sliver is fully allocated (allocation state is not `geni_pending_allocation`).

    531 While the `action` argument may be aggregate and sliver type specific (none are required for all aggregates and sliver types), this API does define three common actions that AMs should support if possible: `geni_start`, `geni_stop`, and `geni_restart`. Calling `PerformOperationalAction` with the action`geni_start` corresponds to the final part of what !CreateSliver did in AM API v2. For more information, see the Common Concepts page section on  wiki:GAPI_AM_API_V3/CommonConcepts#SliverOperationalActions operational actions].

    533533Options include: {{{geni_best_effort}}}. Default is false (action applies to all slivers equally or none).
