Update to 5.5.1 hypervisor questions

Good afternoon, all!

We're running a test stack with Hypervisor 5.5.0 build 1331820.  We want to update this to the latest build available.

On our production stack we would use Update Manager.  I don't think this will work for the free hypervisor.

What's the proper way to update the build on the free hypervisor?

Thanks to all for looking!

If you are using the VMware image, you can either upgrade the host using the CD-ROM, or by applying the latest patch using the esxcli command line tool. In case of an custom OEM build, I'd suggest you check whether the vendor offers an updated ISO image and use this for the upgrade.
