What is hwIndex?

This read-only INTEGER gives the slot number, starting at 1 for the top-most slot, and always matches the instance value of the corresponding hwEntry row. An admin uses this to map a hardware-table row directly to a physical slot position. For example, an hwEntry with instance {hwIndex 3} containing the value 3 confirms the row describes the module physically installed in the third slot from the top.
