I *think* EOL means "End Of Line" as in a vehicle production cycle where all the various electronic components are brought together and programmed into the body/master control node. Makes more sense than "End Of Life" :)

A possibly relevant link I found is https://www.goepel.com/en/automotive-test-solutions/applications/eol-test.html

As I understand it, it is a function of the network architecture employed by FCA. The master vehicle configuration is stored in the BCM, but several other ECUs store a copy of the configuration file. When you change the BCM configuration and complete a proxi-alignment, the main BCM file is copied to the other ECUs on the network that share it. EOL OK means that the relevant ECU's presence and configuration are confirmed to be correctly stored throughout the network (to the end of the line).

EOL OK means it is OK!

EOL failed would mean that there is a problem ;)
