Actual exam question for F5's F5CAB1 exam
Question #: 53
Topic #: 4
A BIG-IP Administrator needs to install a HotFix on a standalone BIG-IP device, which has HD1.1 as the Active Boot Location.
The administrator has already re-activated the license and created a UCS archive.
In which sequence should the administrator perform the remaining steps?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

When installing a HotFix on a BIG-IP device, F5 best practices require:
Installing the base TMOS image on a new, unused boot volume (HD1.2)
This ensures the upgrade happens on a clean volume.
The existing active boot location remains untouched for rollback.
Installing the HotFix onto the SAME new boot volume (HD1.2)
HotFixes must be applied on top of a base version.
They cannot be installed on an empty volume.
They must match the base image version.
Activating the new boot volume (HD1.2)
The system reboots into the updated software stack.
Activation happens after base + HotFix installation is complete.
This sequence is exactly shown in Option C:
Install base Image in HD1.2
Install HotFix in HD1.2
Activate HD1.2
