Which directory should the LCM Framework Bundle be extracted to on a dark site web server in order to update the LCM Framework?
- A . release
- B . upgrade
- C . software
- D . install
A
Explanation:
When updating the LCM Framework on a dark site web server, the LCM Framework Bundle should be extracted to the "release" directory. This directory is specifically designated for holding the updated LCM Framework files, and the update process will look for the files in this location. Extracting the bundle to a different directory, such as "upgrade", "software" or "install" would not be sufficient as the LCM Framework update process may not be able to find the files.
