Nutanix has released version 5.6 of their Acropolis Operating System (AOS). This is the next installment of their AOS “Obelix” release from late last year.
This obviously also means that many of the supporting components of the Nutanix eco-system also have new releases to complement AOS, namely AFS, AHV, Prism Central, NCC, LCM and Foundation. Please refer to the resources section at the end for links to downloads and release notes.
