This is the completion status of this specific FSM stage, independent of the overall workflow's status on the parent FSM object. Pushing the policy out to the fabric happens as an ordered sequence of named steps, and this record is one of those steps — useful for telling whether a stuck rollout is stuck on the fabric-A push, the fabric-B push, or the final verify. Values such as 'completed', 'in-progress', or 'fail-retry-exceeded' tell an admin whether this exact step succeeded, is still running, or is the one actually blocking the whole QoS-policy rollout.
