Storage Scale GUI command line does not show when Expiration (Safe Guarded snapshot) is enabled

Client enabled the option "Allow Expiration"  at the GUI. At the GUI panel, we see the Expiration column changed from False to True.

However when checking in the /usr/lpp/mmfs/gui/cli/lssnaprule command, it does not have the Expiration column, so it does not clearly show that the Expiration is set in that snapshot rule.
