On a MountInst object -- an NFS mount that UCS Manager has set up (for example a remote share used for backup images, firmware, or ISO repositories) -- cucsNfsMountInstFsmTry is a Gauge32 counter/value representing how many attempts the FSM task has made so far to complete its overall operation. An admin monitors this number because it quantifies the internal progress or configuration of that specific MountInst instance's operation, which is otherwise invisible outside UCS Manager's own FSM engine. For example, a rising or stalled value on cucsNfsMountInstFsmTry tells the admin whether the MountInst instance's task is actively making progress or has stopped moving forward.
