Hi Lasindu, The timer you mentioned is for the cartridge to come active after it got subscribed
<!-->member expiry timeout (time waited till activation) in ms<--> <expiryTimeout>900000</expiryTimeout> Lets take an example, I subscribed to cartridge & it comes Active within the expiry-timeout mentioned above. Now, after sometime the cartridge vm becomes unreachable or disconnected than based on which timer, stratos will decide to delete the cartridge-vm & re-spawn the new instance of it.
