This is the fsmDescr property on a stats collection policy object, a short text description of the most recent FSM (finite state machine) task UCS Manager ran while applying or updating this policy. An admin checking why a collection policy change has not taken effect yet reads this field to see, in plain text, what the internal workflow engine is currently doing. For example, fsmDescr might read something describing a configuration-apply step, letting the admin confirm the policy update is still in progress rather than stalled.
