350-601 Question #565: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Which component is, by default, excluded from the host firmware package on a Cisco UCS B- Series Server?

Options

• Alocal SD card
• Blocal disk
• Cstorage controller
• Dgraphics processing unit

Explanation

By default, the firmware for local disk drives is typically excluded from the host firmware package on a Cisco UCS B-Series Server. This design choice allows for more flexible and sometimes quicker host firmware updates, as disk firmware can be managed separately.

Common mistakes.

• A. The local SD card firmware, if managed by the UCS system, is commonly included within the host firmware package.
• C. The storage controller (e.g., RAID controller) firmware is a critical component for server functionality and is almost always part of the host firmware package to ensure compatibility.
• D. Graphics processing unit (GPU) firmware, if a GPU is installed and managed by UCS, would typically be incorporated into the host firmware package to ensure correct operation.
