How to update VMWare ESXi 4.0 to 4.0 Update 1
All,
We have ESXi 4.0 (VSphere.) I'd like to apply Update 1. The instructions I've found so far are not clear how to go about this.
I have the patch file (ESXi-4.0.0-update1.zip), but without a CLI or Upgrade Manager, I'm not sure how to apply it. I also downloaded the Update1 install ISO, and booted our host from it; however, this isn't a patch process but a new install complete with a volume wipe.
Ideas?
Thanks.

Thanks all. I needed to install upgrade manager.
I have vCenter, but isn't upgrade manager a seperate module?
