The key properties in the above output include the following:

InstanceID: Normally identifies the firmware on a particular type of device. The substring right

after DCIM: is the status of a payload or firmware on the system. This can be installed or

available.

ComponentID: Uniquely identifies a unique type of device such as BIOS, NIC, Storage and Lifecycle

controller firmware.

InstallationDate: The date when the payload was installed to the system. If the system time was

not set when the firmware installation took place the install date will be 1970-01-01. Factory

installed firmware will have the 1970-01-01 date.
