What must be ensured before upgrading AOS?

Ensure you are running the latest firmware version
Ensure you are upgrading to the newest AOS version
Ensure you are running the latest version of NCC
Ensure you are upgrading to the first available AOS version

The correct answer is: Ensure you are running the latest version of NCC

Before upgrading the Acropolis Operating System (AOS), it is crucial to ensure that you are running the latest version of the Nutanix Cluster Check (NCC). The NCC performs health checks on the components of the Nutanix cluster, providing important insights regarding the cluster's state and readiness for an upgrade. Having the latest version of NCC allows for the detection and reporting of any potential issues that could impede the upgrade process. Ensuring that NCC is up to date will provide critical assessments of the current environment, allowing administrators to take necessary actions to resolve any issues before proceeding with the upgrade. This focus on readiness helps to minimize risks and ensure a smoother upgrade experience. While keeping the AOS and firmware versions current is beneficial for overall system performance and compatibility, confirming the status of NCC is a foundational step that directly impacts the upgrade process's safety and success.
