What is alarmDescription?

This object holds free-text describing an alarm condition raised by external power hardware. It is used specifically in the rectifierAlarm trap to pass through the alarm text generated by the APC power rectifier, so the admin sees the exact vendor alarm message. A typical value might read "Rectifier module 2 over-temperature" when the power system detects a fault.
