Explanation
Option C is correct because HPE OneView's internal firmware repository only supports SPP (Service Pack for ProLiant) ISO bundles, not standalone firmware components. Since iLO firmware is distributed as a standalone component (a .bin file), it can only be hosted in an external HTTP/HTTPS repository, which OneView can then reference directly.
Why the distractors are wrong:
- A is incorrect - there is no requirement to use PowerShell to upload firmware; that's not a platform constraint for iLO components.
- B is incorrect - you do not need to repackage iLO firmware into a custom SPP ISO; that would be unnecessarily complex and is not the supported workflow.
- D is incorrect - iLO firmware cannot be flagged as a "hotfix" and uploaded directly to the internal repository; the internal repo's format restrictions still apply regardless of how the file is labeled.
Memory tip: Think of the internal repository as an "ISO-only zone" - it only accepts full SPP bundles. Anything standalone (like a bare iLO .bin) needs to live outside in an external repo that OneView points to via URL.
