This Gauge32 reports the count of PCIe completion aborts accumulated specifically within the last 15 minutes — that is, the receiving PCIe device could not satisfy a request and returned a Completer Abort instead of valid data — and rolls forward on that period rather than accumulating forever like the base Counter32 for this error type. A rising value here (rather than a flat one inherited from months ago) is what tells an admin that this specific PCIe error is happening right now and worth an immediate look, not just a historical scar. For example, seeing this climb from 0 to 3 across two SNMP polls during the last 15 minutes window would point to an active, ongoing PCIe fault on this component rather than a one-time event from long ago.
