Explanation
To boot a Cisco UCS B-Series blade from a Fibre Channel SAN LUN, two key steps must be configured in the boot policy. First (Answer B), SAN Boot must be added as a boot device in the boot order - this tells the server to attempt booting from a SAN target rather than only local media. Second (Answer C), a SAN Boot Target must be configured with the WWPN (World Wide Port Name) of the storage array's target port - this identifies exactly which FC target the blade should connect to and boot from. Without specifying the target WWPN, the server cannot locate the correct LUN on the array. iSCSI-related options (Answer E) are irrelevant here since the requirement specifies Fibre Channel. External USB or LAN boot (Answer D) do not address FC SAN booting.
