Explanation

The Nutanix Life Cycle Manager (LCM) Framework upgrades itself through the inventory process. When an administrator runs an LCM Inventory (either against the Nutanix portal for dark-site or internet-connected environments), LCM first checks for and applies an update to its own framework before inventorying other components. This is by design - LCM is self-bootstrapping. Uploading an image via Image Configuration (Option B) is for VM disk images, not LCM bundles. Option C (Upgrade Software in Prism) is used for AOS/AHV upgrades, not LCM framework. Option D (Upgrade AOS) would not independently update LCM.
