VMware Exam 5V0-22.21 Topic 12 Question 50 Discussion

Actual exam question for VMware's 5V0-22.21 exam

Question #: 50
Topic #: 12

A vSAN administrator is looking forward to managing hypervisor, server drivers, and firmware all in one cluster image using vLCM. The vSAN administrator edits the desired Image and selects the desired ESXi version and Vendor Addon but is unable to add any firmware.

Why is there no firmware available to add to the image?

AAll hosts in the cluster have the most current firmware installed already, and as a result, vLCM has no firmware to add to the image.

BThe vCenter server version is older than 7.0, and as a result, vLCM does not support firmware addons.

CIn order for firmware addons to be available, the administrator must first deploy the server vendor Hardware Support Manager <HSM) and import the appropriate server vendor bundle.

DThe hosts listed in the cluster is managed by a vSphere Update Manager, so firmware updates are not possible.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

In order for firmware addons to be available, the administrator must first deploy the server vendor Hardware Support Manager (HSM) and import the appropriate server vendor bundle. This is explained in detail in the VMware documentation, specifically in the section titled 'Deploy the Hardware Support Manager' in the 'Using vSphere Lifecycle Manager' document.

It's also possible that since the hosts are managed by vSphere Update Manager, firmware updates are restricted.

Or maybe the administrator needs to first deploy the server vendor Hardware Support Manager and import the appropriate server vendor bundle to enable firmware addons.
