While deploying the standard service update, among multiple issues, you may come across one related to update of Dev-Tools.
The error message will be something as Update script for service model: DevToolsService on machine:
You can find/google multiple solutions for this problem, of which one prominent solution I can highlight is to install the VSIX files manually, as documented on the docs.
Also someone blogged another solution for this on LinkedIn, a while back. I tried all those solutions, until nothing worked.
If you are in the same ship as I was, the support guy may tell you to deploy the new development VM, but I would suggest you try the following before you think of a new VM.
- Go to Service Drive, on the cloud deployments it is k:\
- Go into Deployable Packages Folder and Find the Package that failed, you can find it using date/time sorting.
- Find the DevToolsService Scripts and there is a PowerShell Script named as AutoUpdateDevToolsService
- Run this script manually and resume the update from the LCS.
