/usr/sbin/update-grub2 simply calls update-grub. when a new kernel is installed (say via an update), or a mew module is built using dkms, then the script /usr/sbin/update-grub automatically gets run. This in turn runs /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig which is also a script that you can read. This, basically, searches your system for kernels and other operating systems (like Windows for example) and automatically creates the necessary files for grub to read when booting. Other grub configuration rules and parameters - aside from the default kernel names and locations - should go in /etc/default/grub. All this is designed to mean that you no longer should manually edit anything in /boot/grub.
