Pacman is the package manager of Arch Linux. A package manager is a application which handles the downloading and installation of packages. As far as I know, all linux distros comes with a package manager.
#pacman -Syu
Updates the entire system. It's very important that you do this after you install Arch.
To know what updates had occured, check /var/log/pacman.log were Pacman output is saved.
If you are having any trouble updating. Check /etc/pacman.conf and /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
Pick a server closer to you from the mirrorlist file.
