Which tool can be used to automate upgrades and Hotfix installations?

The correct answer isB.CDT, Central Deployment Tool, is the tool designed to automate package installation workflows such as upgrades and Hotfix deployments across multiple Security Gateways and Cluster Members. The CDT Administration Guide states that CDT manages the installation of software packages from the Management Server to multiple Security Gateways and Cluster Members at the same time and supports installing and uninstalling software packages, running scripts, pushing and pulling files, and handling cluster upgrades automatically. Option A, CPUSE, is the underlying Gaia software update mechanism, but it is not the best answer when the question asks for automation across upgrade and Hotfix installation workflows. Option C, DA or Deployment Agent, is the local engine used by CPUSE to perform installation tasks; it is a component, not the automation tool. Option D, API, can support automation in broader management contexts, but in Check Point upgrade terminology the named tool for automated upgrades and Hotfix installations isCDT.
