docsPnmCmCtlStatus

This attribute represents the overall status of the PNM test platform.
Individual tests, within the PNM test suite, have their own specific
objects to start and stop. For each test defined by the data-type
enumeration for 'PnmCmCtlTest', the CM must first check the status of this
object before starting. If this object is set to any value other than
'ready', the CM must not start the test. If the CM was not able to start
the test and the test has a 'MeasStatusType' object, the CM must set the
'MeasStatusType' to a value of 'resourceUnavailable'.
          
If the test is allowed to start, the CM must change the value of this
object to 'testInProgress'. When the test is no longer in progress, the
CM must change the value of this object to a value other than
'testInProgress'.
          
This mechanism serves to allow only one instance of only one test to
run at a time. There may be some tests that are not included by
this control object. That is, if any test is not defined by the
data-type enumeration for 'PnmCmCtlTest', then it is not included
(unless otherwise stated by the test definition) and is not required to
check or to change this object. If a test is not included or covered by
this set of objects, then it is allowed to run regardless of any
other tests in progress.
          
The possible values for this object are:
  'other' - Any condition not otherwise defined
  'ready' - The PNM platform is capable and ready to support a test.
            A test can be initiated
  'testInProgress' - A PNM test is currently in progress
  'tempReject' - A temporary condition exists that prohibits a test
                 from starting, e.g., DBC
