A vSphere Lifecycle Manager image can consist of the following four elements:
ESXi base image
The base image contains an image of VMware ESXi Server and additional components, such as drivers and adapters that are necessary to boot a server. The base image is the only mandatory element in a vSphere Lifecycle Manager image. All other elements are optional.
Vendor add-on
The vendor add-on is a collection of software components that OEMs create and distribute. The vendor add-on can contain drivers, patches, and solutions.
Firmware and drivers add-on
The firmware and drivers add-on is a special type of vendor add-on designed to assist in the firmware update process. The firmware and drivers add-on contains firmware for a specific server type and corresponding drivers. To add a firmware and drivers add-on to your image, you must install the hardware support manager plug-in provided by the hardware vendor for the hosts in the respective cluster.
Independent components
The component is the smallest discrete unit in an image. The independent components that you add to an image contain third-party software, for example drivers or adapters.
When configuring a vSphere Lifecycle Manager (vLCM) image, the following four elements can be included:
Correct Answers:
A. ESXi base image
D. Vendor add-ons
F. Firmware and drivers add-on
G. Independent components
Explanation:
A. ESXi base image: This is the core operating system for ESXi hosts and is a fundamental part of any vSphere Lifecycle Manager image.
D. Vendor add-ons: Vendor-specific software or components can be included in the image to add functionality that is specific to certain hardware platforms (e.g., drivers or management tools provided by hardware vendors).
F. Firmware and drivers add-on: vLCM allows you to manage and update host firmware and drivers along with the ESXi base image to ensure hardware compatibility and stability.
G. Independent components: These are optional components or drivers that can be added independently to the image for additional functionality or to support specific devices.
