WHAT IS iSUT: Integrated Smart Update Tools (iSUT) for ESXi is a utility that assists in performing online software and firmware updates on a system that uses tools such as HPE OneView, iLO Amplifier Pack, or SUM via the iLO management network. WHAT ARE iSUT MODES: iSUT has 4 modes: * OnDemand * AutoStage * AutoDeploy * AutoDeployRoboot - The default install mode is OnDemand mode. In OnDemand mode, iSUT does not perform any updates automatically. After an update is requested, iSUT must run manually on the system using iSUT ondemand commands like sut -deploy, sut -deployreboot etc. - In any of the auto modes, iSUT runs as a service and polls the iLO for requested updates from external tools. Once detected, iSUT performs the following actions allowed by the mode: * Just stage the updates * Stage and deploy * Stage, deploy, and reboot - For AutoStage, you must still run after staging is done for the updates to be installed, allowing the OS user to control when updates are performed.
