Exam 350-601 topic 1 question 104 discussion

Actual exam question from Cisco's 350-601

Question #: 104
Topic #: 1

When the default firmware package is set to a new version, which type of policy determines the timing of server reboots during the firmware upgrade?

A. diagnostics
B. maintenance
C. local disk
D. BIOS

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
This activation procedure causes the server to reboot. Depending upon whether the service profile associated with the server includes a maintenance policy, the reboot can occur immediately. Cisco recommends that you upgrade the board controller firmware through the host firmware package in the service profile as the last step of upgrading a Cisco UCS domain, along with upgrading the server BIOS. This reduces the number of times a server needs to reboot during the upgrade process.

B is correct. You cannot cancel a server firmware upgrade process after you complete the configuration in the Install Server Firmware wizard. Cisco UCS Manager applies the changes immediately. However, the timing of the actual reboot of servers occurs depends upon the maintenance policy in the service profile associated with the server. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/ucs-manager/GUI-User-Guides/Firmware-Mgmt/3-1/b_UCSM_GUI_Firmware_Management_Guide_3_1/b_UCSM_GUI_Firmware_Management_Guide_3_1_chapter_011.html
