You have embedded your enum, so the class is embedded as it is local to the OpenAPI type. If you want to make a global enum, create a first class object, e.g.:

components:
  schemas:
    OrderStatusType:
      type: string
     enum:
      - NONE
      -  PENDING
      - ...
      - 

and then use it as a $ref
