This is the description text UCS attaches to the current FSM stage name for this UCS M-Series modular server slot endpoint, spelling out in plain terms what that named stage actually does. An admin unfamiliar with UCS's internal FSM stage-naming convention reads this field to understand what the M-Series slot's workflow is doing right now without having to look up Cisco's FSM stage documentation. A value like 'Waiting for the endpoint to power on' clarifies what an otherwise cryptic stage name is actually doing.
