Concerns a system ordered by X for rescue practice. It's the 'ut' that's puzzling me - could this be a typo, or could there be words missing do you think?
Advice appreciated!

solicited/requested
Explanation:
you are on track... Omitting the "ut" would not sound idiomatic, but essentially it means simply solicited/requested. I believe the linguistic term is something fixed collocations.
