HPE Simplivity Solutions — Question 37

Which statement about an HPE OneView server profile is true?

Answer options

• A. A server profile can be used to update firmware and drivers when the operating system on the server is up and running
• B. A server profile created for a specific server hardware type cannot be moved to a server with a different server hardware type
• C. A server profile can be used to configure a local storage controller, but cannot be used to configure SAN-based storage
• D. A server profile can be created only for HPE BladeSystem, HPE Synergy, and HPE Superdome Flex servers.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Option C is correct because an HPE OneView server profile can indeed configure a local storage controller but is limited in its ability to manage SAN-based storage configurations. Option A is incorrect as firmware and drivers typically require the server to be offline for updates. Option B is false since server profiles can sometimes be adapted for different hardware types, depending on compatibility. Option D is misleading as server profiles can be created for more systems beyond just the ones listed.
