pretty much ... if You would be using some older server with very old BIOS,Then the bios should be upgraded before ILO.

But for You this is correct.

Also look at array firmware, NIC firmware and maybe HBA firmware as they probably need a reboot and you can do this at the same time as the BIOS firmware.
