Hi Rasika, Thanks for the feedback on the rack rentals and work books. Here are a few answers that will hopefully help you out.
I believe the ACS server should be getting its time from its ESX server. I do know that the certificate is old and from 2011. That will get remedied when I rewrite WB volume 1 this summer. You can renew the cert on the server to get it to a valid date range in the mean time. But you can definitely set the time on ACS, which is something you should be familiar with for the lab. Simply SSH to the ACS server and login with admin/IPexpert123. Then you can either manually set the clock with the "clock set" command, or you can configure an ntp server with the "ntp server" command in the global config mode. You can use either the CME router (10.10.210.20 or 10.10.205.20) or the WCS server (10.10.210.6) as an NTP server. The WCS server is a domain controller and has the DNS and DHCP services installed. So you would do those exercises from the WCS server. I am in the middle of adapting WB2 for the new racks as we speak. I have the first two done now and should finish up the last 3 this next week. I can get you the updates that I have now if you'd like, since they won't go live for a couple of weeks. I put out an update to WB1 a month or so ago. It was mainly to adapt it to the new racks, so the content remained the same for the most part. But I did fix where it was using the wrong code versions. So everything is on current lab code. It should be available in your members area for download. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help you out in these last few weeks before your lab.
