Which server policy is used to install new Cisco IMC software on a server?

A Cisco IMC software policy specifies and deploys the Cisco Integrated Management Controller software version for the targeted server. It is therefore the policy directly associated with installing new Cisco IMC software. A BIOS software policy concerns the server BIOS rather than the management-controller software. A host firmware policy generally defines firmware packages for server components managed through a service profile, including adapters, BIOS, and storage-controller firmware, but the question specifically asks for the dedicated policy used to install Cisco IMC software. A hypervisor firmware policy relates to hypervisor components or associated infrastructure and does not update the server’s embedded management controller. Cisco IMC operates as the out-of-band management controller for a UCS C-Series server, providing management interfaces, monitoring, KVM, virtual media, and platform-control functions.
