IBM Security Access Manager V9.0 Deployment — Question 7

A customer received a replacement hardware appliance, but on boot up it has a different firmware than that for IBM Security Access Manager (ISAM) V9.0. The appliance needs to be flashed to ISAM V9.0. The appliance needs to be rebooted with a bootable USB drive formatted as FAT32.
Which file format is needed to create the bootable drive?

Answer options

• A. .iso
• B. .ova
• C. .pkg
• D. .img

Correct answer: A

Explanation

.iso files are commonly used to create bootable USB drives, particularly for operating system installations or firmware updates. The other formats, such as .ova and .pkg, are not suitable for this purpose, while .img files may work but are less standard compared to .iso for this specific application.
