What is cpqExOsCommonModulePurpose?
This read-only string describes the purpose of a specific module described in the external-MIB agent's module table. An administrator reads it to understand what a given external monitoring module is actually for, beyond just its name and version. A purpose string explaining that a module monitors a third-party UPS, for example, would clarify why that module appears in this agent's external-status reporting.
