You always need to reboot. IPS never updates the live system but clones it and updates the clone. This feature is known as Boot Environments. You can manage them with the beadm utility.
image-update and update are the same command. At least they map to the exact same action. Why we documented image-update i do not know. The manpage only lists update. The IO error you are getting points to either a defect Hardware or Connection problems. Can you run "curl -iv http://pkg.openindiana.org"; ? That should give you more information what is not working.
