You might have seen my ACI lab in a previous post. I’ve installed that lab two years ago and ever since it has seen some heavy usage. It also lost some hardware due to ACI 5.x being installed on it and the Gen 1 hardware not supporting that version. Since the lab is used by me and co-workers to perform tests, training and lots and lots more it was time for a winter cleaning.
ACI 5.1 has been released about three months ago. That means that ACI 5.2 is likely imminent. Usually I review a version when it becomes available, like I’ve done for versions 3.2, 4.0, 4.2, 5.0 and 5.1. I will do something similar when 5.2 will be released, but for now I thought it would be nice to speculate a bit.
