Check the current desired state status of the resource.
DesiredStateCheckPostEnforcement
Re-check desired state status for a resource after enforcement of all
resources in the current configuration run.
This step is used to determine the final desired state status for the
resource. It accounts for any resources that might have drifted from
their desired state due to side effects from configuring other resources
during the current configuration run.
DesiredStateEnforcement
Enforce the desired state for a resource that is not in desired state.
Unspecified
Default value. This value is unused.
Validation
Validation to detect resource conflicts, schema errors, etc.
