docs: end user documentation regarding firmware management #1908

Description

How would you describe the priority of this documentation request

High

Describe the future/missing documentation

infra-controller is able to upgrade firmware for the machines that it manages: BIOS, BMC firmware, etc.

However, this feature is not very well documented and is indirectly mentioned in the documentation.

I would like a proper operator documentation for this feature:

  • How infra-controller manages firmware updates.
  • What are common cases.
  • How to manually trigger a firmware update.
  • How to use a newer version of a firmware.

Why it is important?

Likely at some point operators hit bugs that can only be solved by upgrading the firmware. As such I would like a clear guide about how to the latest and greatest firmware artifacts from a vendor.
