{{snippet.Documentation Feedback}}

{{glossary.Lab Profile}} are the definitions or configurations for Skillable Labs. Settings such as the virtual or cloud components utilized, how networking is configured, {{glossary.Duration}} of the lab, etc. are all specified on the lab profile. Lab profiles can exist on their own, but cannot be launched outside of {{glossary.Skillable Studio}} without being associated to a {{glossary.Lab Series}}.

Basic Information

Settings in the Basic Information category relate to the fundamentals of a lab profile and impact some of the basics such as searchability & lab duration.

Field	Description
Number	Often considered the lab "code" - the lab number is intended to be a short way to reference a lab without a full title. This field supports numbers, letters, and symbols such as - or _.
Name	This will be the display name of the lab profile.
Series	The lab series that the lab profile is associated with. This controls what {{glossary.API Consumer}} the lab is available to.
{{glossary.Organization}}	The organization that will own and maintain the lab profile. Impacts what {{glossary.Users}} have access to view/modify.
Virtualization Platform	The underlying {{glossary.Virtualization Platform}} that the lab profile will use. Selecting "None" will result in the lab profile using the Cloud Client.
Code {{glossary.Lab Fabric}}	Sets the lab to use the {{glossary.Code Labs}} fabric.
Parent	Enable {{glossary.Inheritance}} or change the existing {{glossary.Inheritance}} relationship. Can impact the virtual environment (virtual machines, virtual networks, etc), resources and content (manuals, scenario, objective, exercises, tasks, etc), or both. Changes to selected options of the parent lab profile will be reflected in instances of this lab.
Storage Reservation Per Instance	This is the amount of storage that the lab scheduler will ensure is available before an instance of this lab is Launched on a lab host server.
Development Status	Set the lab profile {{glossary.Development Status}}. Lab profiles in a "Complete" Development Status will be available to launch outside of Skillable Studio, other development status' will only be available to registered lab developers.
Duration	The expected amount of time it will take a user to complete the lab.
Prompt user to extend time	Enable the user to extend the lab time by a specified amount of time (ex: 20mins) when a specified amount of time is remaining (ex: 10mins). Labs will not extend beyond 150% of their configured duration.
Level	Sets the Level for the lab; this can be 100, 200, 300, or 400.
{{glossary.Evaluation}}	Select to add an Evaluation to the lab profile. The Evaluation must already be created to add it to the lab profile using this button.
{{glossary.Advertising Campaign}}	Used to show introductory content while the lab is loading. This can be a video, PowerPoint presentation or anything accessible by a URL.
Enabled	Used to enable or disable the lab profile for use. If the lab is disabled, it will only be accessible to lab developers.
Enable Bug Reporting	Allows bug reporting on the lab profile. Bug reports are collected on the lab profile details page by selecting Edit in the upper-right corner of the lab profile page.
Bug Report Email Address	If this value is set, bug reports submitted by end users will be emailed to the supplied address. Notice that this field is not required in order for bug reporting and tracking to work.
Owner Name	The name of the owner of the lab profile.
Owner E-mail	The e-mail address of the owner of the lab profile.

Networks

To use network features, such as external internet access or communication between virtual machines, lab profiles must have a network created or inherit networks from a Parent lab profile.

Field	Description
Name	Display name of the network.
Description	Used to provide more information about the network.
Type of network	The type of network to be used by the lab profile. There are four options:
	Private: private network (no internet access), typically used for communication between virtual machines. - VLAN ID*: Select automatic VLAN ID assignment or specify a specific VLAN ID.
	Web Access (NAT): internet accessible with NAT (network address translation) - VLAN ID*: Select automatic VLAN ID assignment or specify a specific VLAN ID. - Gateway address: specify the gateway address or use the default address of 192.168.1.1. - Subnet Mask: specify a Subnet mask or use the default Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0. - Enable {{glossary.DHCP}}: check to enable DHCP (dynamic configuration host protocol). - DHCP Start Range: enter the starting value of the IP range that will be available in the lab. - DHCP End Range: enter the ending value of the IP range that will be available in the lab.
	Web Access (Public IP): internet accessible network with a public IP address. If virtual machines (VM) in your lab(s) use a custom UUID or static MAC address, and uses a public IP address, you may encounter issues with subsequent launches after the lab has been launched. The public IP will be associated with the custom UUID or static MAC address, and will prevent the VM from being launched in more than one lab at a time.
{{glossary.Access Control List}}	User to control how students use the web within a {{glossary.Virtual Machine}}.
Visible to Student	Designates if the network is visible to users with student access, within the lab environment.
Development Only	Used to make the network available to lab profile that are currently in development.

*VLAN IDs are configured differently for Hyper-V and ESX. The VLAN ID is set on the VM profile for Hyper-V and set on the Networks tab of the Lab Profile for ESX.

If you are building ESX labs and you need the VM’s in the lab to be able to set their own VLAN ID’s or enable Trunked Ports set the VLAN ID to Specify with a value of 4095.

Virtual Machines

Field	Description
Add Virtual machine	Select the add a virtual machine to the lab profile. The virtual machine must already be created to add it to the lab profile using this button.
Create {{glossary.Virtual Machine Profile}}	Select to create a virtual machine. This will create a virtual machine, in which the lab author can specify hardware preferences.
Has Virtual machine Pool	A pool of unique virtual machine profiles can be created, to be issued to individual users. A single pool member will never be used by two different users simultaneously. This is useful for to ensure that a machine or set of machines is unique in the world at any given point in time. If your virtual machine will be identical for all users, you do not need a pool. It is important to note that you can only have as many concurrent users as you have pool members. This can greatly reduce the scalability of the lab, so ensure you create a sufficient pool depth to accommodate the peak number of anticipated concurrent users.
After a virtual machine profile has been added, the following options are available:
Visible to Student	Allows the student to view and select the virtual machine from the resources tab.
Default Selection	Sets the VM to be the default VM selected in the lab. This is the VM that will display when the lab is launched.
Connect to terminal	Hides the desktop UI and allows the VM to be connected to via a terminal. For more information, read Terminal access to virtual machines.
Start Automatically	Enables the VM to start automatically when the lab is launched.
Startup Delay	Enter that amount of delay for the VM to start, measured in seconds.
Wait for heartbeat before displaying to user	When this is enabled, the {{glossary.Lab Client}} will not display the lab to the user until the virtual machine reports a heartbeat to the virtualization platform. This is useful if you want to prevent the user from accessing the lab before critical machines are up and running. This feature requires the VM to have {{glossary.Hyper-V}} {{glossary.Integration}} services installed on Hyper-V VMs, and VMware Tools installed on an {{glossary.ESX}} VM. Windows operating systems starting with Windows 10 and Server 2016 have Hyper-V integration services installed by default. Other operating systems require them to be installed. Additionally, on ESX VMs, you must ensure that the user credentials in the virtual machine profile are correct (they are used to initiate the file creation in the VM). - For more information Hyper-V Integration Services, please see the Hyper-V Integration Services Documentation. - For more information about VMware Tools, please see the VMware Tools Documentation.
Synchronize system time with host	Synchronizes the VM system time with the time on the host that the VM is running on.
Set initial system time (available on ESX only)	Allows you to set the date and time that the VM will launch at. This can be used in conjunction with Synchronize system time with host to freeze the date and time.
Allow user to revert to initial state	Allows the user to revert to the initial state that the lab was launched at. The user can roll back the VM no matter what has been done in the {{glossary.Lab instance}}. This option is found in the Commands menu (lightning bolt icon) in the lab.
Make lab instance data available inside virtual machine	When this option is enabled, lab instance data will be available in the virtual machine. The location varies depending on the platform used (Hyper-v or ESX): - Hyper-V: in Windows registry: `HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Virtual Machine\External`. - ESX: in Windows-based systems: `C:\Users\Public\Documents\LabInstance.txt`. - ESX: in Unix-based systems: `/tmp/labinstance`.
	If the VM is hidden from the student, the lab instance data will have the username and password for the VM removed, when viewing lab instance data from other VMs in the lab. This prevents a hidden VM from being tampered with by the student. All @lab token names and values will be included: - Lab Instance ID - Lab Profile ID - Virtual Machine Profile ID - User ID - External User ID (if launched via {{glossary.API}}) - Username - E-mail - First Name - Last Name - Tag (an optional value that can be passed in via the Launch API)
Resume Order	Used when resuming from save and launching from a start state.
Resume Delay	the amount of delay for the VM to start, after resuming a saved lab.
Floppy Drive	If removeable media is added to the lab profile, select floppy media in the drop-down to have that media loaded when the VM starts.
DVD Drive	If removeable media is added to the lab profile, select DVD media in the drop-down to have that media loaded when the VM starts.
Network Adapter	If a network has been configured in the Networks tab of the lab profile, select the network that will be available to the VM in the lab.
Visible to student	Checking this box allows the network to be visible to the student. If this box is not checked, the network will not be visible to the student in the lab.

{{glossary.Removable Media}}

Field	Description
Add Removable Media	Select to add removable Media to the lab profile. The removable media must already be created to add it to the lab profile using this button.
Create Removable Media	Select to create removable media. This will create removable media that can be used in the lab. Removable media types include Floppy and Optical.

When removable media is created, you must choose a platform that the removable media will be used on; Hyper-V or ESX. The removable media is tagged in Skillable Studio with the platform. The media can only be used with the chosen platform.

Cloud

Field	Description
Cloud Platform	Select the cloud platform to be used by the lab profile. Selecting a Cloud Platform will allow the lab profile to use the Cloud Lab Client.
Override Client landing Page	Enables the portal window to display a specific URL, configured in the Client Landing Page field after enabling this feature by checking the box. - Client Landing Page: Enter the URL that the portal window will display. This is used in Cloud Lab Client. Leave this field blank if no Cloud Platform is selected in the previous step. - Append Lab Date: This option is only available when Override Client Landing Page is enabled. When Append Lab Data is enabled, the following lab data will be appended to the URL as URL parameters in name=value format. - labProfileId - labInstanceId - globalLabInstanceId - userId - userExternalId (if the lab is launched via API) - email - firstName - lastName - tag (if included when launched via API)
Enable Automatic Login ({{glossary.AWS}} Only)	When this option is enabled, users will be directly logged into the cloud portal. No cloud portal users are required. If disabled users will need to manually log into the portal using a required cloud portal user supplied in the user section.
{{glossary.Subscription}} Pool	Select the subscription pool that the lab will use.
Deploy Default VPC (AWS Only)	When enabled, the lab instances will contain default VPC (Virtual Private Cloud) and resources. Default resources typically contain a VPC, Gateway and other networking resources. Default resources will be deployed prior to template deployment and may add to the instance launch time.
Deployment Failure	Select the deployment failure action. - No Action: no action will be taken if resources fail to deploy. - Terminate Lab: the lab will be terminated if resources fail to deploy. - Send User Notification: a notification will be sent to the user in the lab if resources fail to deploy and the lab will still launch.
Override Script Context	By default, scripts run in the same permissions context as the lab user. You can use this section to elevate the script context role with defined policies, or elevate to run with Full Admin Access. - Run Script as Admin: Selecting this will allow scripts in LCA or ABA to be executed in the permissions context of an Admin with full access to the cloud subscription. Enabling Override Script Context will trigger the need for a security review by Skillable staff.
Datacenter Availability	One or more datacenters that resources will be deployed to. If multiple datacenters are selected, the datacenter physically closest to the lab user will be selected. If a region is marked as 'Privileged' then additional clearance from the fabric owner may be needed to successfully launch labs in that region. - Max Lab Instances: This must be enabled for each datacenter that is made available. Once this is enabled, you can specify the maximum number of lab instances that can be launched in that datacenter.

Cloud User Accounts

Field	Description
Add User Account	Add a portal user account. Enabling this will allow the lab to display credentials to log in to the cloud portal. - Name Prefix: prefix that will be used to display the portal username. - {{glossary.Replacement Token}} {{glossary.Alias}}: alias that will be used in replacement tokens to reference the portal username and password.

Life Cycle

Life Cycle Actions: Actions can be defined to occur at certain points in the lab life cycle. For instance, an external service could be called when the lab builds, or send a notification to the user when the lab is resumed.

Life Cycle Actions

Action	Description
Send a web request	Sends a web request to the URL specified. The URL can optionally contain placeholders that will be replaced by live data, with @lab replacement tokens.
Send a notification to the user	Sends a notification to the user during the specified event.
Send an email to the user	Sends an email to the user during the specified event.
Execute Script in Virtual Machine	Sends a PowerShell or Shell command to a virtual machine.
Execute Script in Container	Sends a Bash command to a container.
Execute Script in Cloud Platform	Sends a PowerShell command to the cloud platform.

Life Cycle Events

Event	Description
Pre-Build	The lab components are being deployed, as well as any cloud resources.
Post-Build	The lab environment has been built, but components like virtual machines may still be starting.
First Displayable	All components of the lab are now running and the user can now interact with the lab.
IP Addresses Assigned	If the lab has public IP addresses, this event will wire when all public IP addresses have been verified to be assigned to the lab's virtual machine(s).
Saving	The lab is in the process of being saved.
Saved	The lab is in a saved state and no longer active.
Resuming	The lab is resuming from a saved state.
- Resumed	The lab has been resumed from a saved state and the user can interact with the lab again.
- Tearing Down	The lab environment is being torn down.
- Torn Down	The lab environment is fully torn down.
- Building	The lab environment is being built.

Additional Life Cycle Settings

Additional settings that can optionally be configured:

Optional Setting	Description
Blocking	This allows you to block further execution of the lab life cycle until the action completes. You can use this to sequence actions that depend on each other.
Delay	Allows you to introduce a delay between the moment the life cycle event occurs and the action is executed.
Error Action	Controls how Skillable Studio will handle errors that occur when executing this action. All errors are logged against the lab instance by default. You can also choose to notify the user about the error or to end the lab. To prevent users from losing their work, only events early in the lifecycle (build, building, running, etc) allow you to end the lab when an error occurs.

Inherit Life Cycle Actions

When a child lab profile is configured to inherit the lab environment from a parent lab profile, LCAs can optionally be set to inherit from the parent lab profile.

To inherit Life Cycle Actions, select the checkbox on the Life Cycle tab of the child lab profile, to enable inheritance. Once inheritance is enabled, no other LCA configuration will be available on the child lab profile. All LCA changes must be made on the parent lab profile.

For more information about Action and Event types, please see our Life Cycle Actions documentation.

Tags

Field	Description
Lab Tags
Add Tag	Select to add a tag to the lab profile. The Tag must already be created before adding it to a lab profile.
Lab Host Tags
Add Lab Host Tag	Lab host tags are used to specify which Lab Host(s) the lab profile will use when users launch the lab. The Lab Host tag must already be created before adding it to a lab profile.

Advanced

Field	Description
Fabric Build Sequence	If the lab contains cloud configuration and virtualization components, you can specify which will build first, or set them to build in parallel.
Theme:	{{glossary.Themes}} allow you to use custom styles and scripts across multiple lab profiles. Themes are usually set at the series or organization level. Set a theme here only if this lab requires customization that differs from other labs in this series and organization.
Display Delay	When set, the lab will not be displayed to the user until the delay time has transpired. You can use this to allow a lab to cook a bit before giving your users access to it. For instance if a critical service with in the lab takes time to spin up and you don't want the user to immediately interact with it.
Display Delay Message	A message that will display on the lab loading screen after the lab is running, but the display delay is in effect. For instance, if you are delaying display in order for critical services to start, you might set this message to Starting critical services.
Introduction Content URL	The content at this URL will be displayed in a dialog when the lab client interfaces first opens. The content can either be an HTML page or an MP4 file. The URL must use HTTPS.
End Redirect URL	If this value is set, users will be redirected to the specified URL when the lab ends. This feature isn't used often, but can help a lab fit into an external workflow.
Max Active Instance	This sets the amount of concurrent labs that can be launched at a time. Setting to Unlimited allows an unlimited amount of launches of this lab profile at a time. Entering a number limits the amount of concurrent labs to the number specified. Any labs that are attempted to be launched after the limit has been met, will be given an error message and will not be able to launch the lab until the number of labs launched is below the maximum amount.
Max Allowed Build Time	The maximum amount of time for the lab to build. Once the configured maximum amount of time has elapsed, the lab will be set to the option selected in the next field, even if the lab has not completed building. The default max build time is 30 minutes for labs that only use Hyper-V or ESX virtual machines, and 60 minutes for labs with a cloud configuration. If a lab contains Hyper-V or ESX virtual machines and a cloud configuration, the max build time will default to 60 minutes. The build time can be set anywhere from 1 minute to 24 hours. Once the maximum build time has elapsed, options include: - Mark as Running: the lab instance state will be set to Running and the lab user will be given access to the lab. - Cancel and Teardown: the lab will be cancelled and all VM and/or cloud resources will be torn down.
Show Timer	Checking this box will enable the lab to display a countdown timer, showing the user how much time they have left to complete the lab.
Enable Navigation Warning	A warning will be displayed if the user navigates away from the lab client before the lab is complete.
Navigation Bar Width	This sets the width of the navigation bar in the lab UI.
Show Instructions Tab	Show the instructions tab of the lab. If this isn't enabled, the instructions tab will not be displayed.
Show Resources Tab	Show the resources tab of the lab. If this isn't enabled, the resources tab will not be displayed.

Custom Resources Tab label	Specify a custom label to display on the resources tab.
Custom Help Tab Label	Specify a custom lab to display on the help tab.
Enable Type Text	Enables the lab to use Type Text. Type Text is used to input information into the lab environment with one click.
Show Virtual machine Power Options	Checking this box enables virtual machine power options to be available to users.
Require Hyper-V Enhanced Controller	Checking this box requires the user to use the Hyper-V Enhanced controller to work in the lab. If this box is checked, users will not be able to use any other machine remote controllers. Note that the Hyper-V enhanced controller only allows one user to access the lab at a time.
Enable Instance Link Sharing	When enabled, the lab instance URLs can be shared between users. If a user copies the URL from their browser's URL bar, they can send it to another user, or open it in a different browser. Note that most virtual machines only allow one user to access them at a time. This settings does not bypass the connection limitation of virtual machines.
Allow Lab instance Naming	Allows users to change the name of their lab instances. By default, lab instances have the same name as the lab profile they are based on.
Allow Multiple Active Instances Per User	Allows a user to have multiple active instances of this lab. This should be left disabled unless all users are willing and able to manage multiple instances. This typically isn't applicable to training scenarios.
Automatically Disable	The lab profile will be disabled at the specified time.
{{glossary.Publish}} to Organization {{glossary.Template Gallery}}	When enabled, this lab profile will be available as a new lab profile template within the organization template gallery.
Publish to Public Template Gallery	When enabled, this lab profile will be available as a new lab profile template within the public template gallery. - Reuse Template Container and Virtual machine Profiles: when this option is enabled, new lab profiles created from this template will reuse the container and virtual machine proifles referenced in this template. When this option is disabled, new labs created from this template will have brand new container and virtual machine profiles cloned into them. NOTE: If virtual machine and container profiles are resued in new labs, changes made to those profiles will impact all labs that use them, including this template.
Enable virtual machine instance RAM/vCPU editing	When this feature is enabled, an option will be available to users in the lab client to edit the amount of RAM and number of vCPU for individual virtual machines in the lab instance. Note these VM changes are isolated to the current lab instance and are not committed to the lab profile. Also note the user will have to have the Edit Virtual Machine Instance RAM/vCPU permission with the lab client.
Record RDP Session	When this is enabled, RDP sessions for a lab instance will be recorded. Recordings can later be viewed in the lab instance details page.

Shared {{glossary.Class}} Environment

Field

Description

Shared Class Environment

Shared class environments allow multiple lab instances to be bound together with one or more shared networks and resources. A shared class environment consists of at least two different lab profiles, each serving a particular role.

- Shared Environment: One lab is configured to serve as the shared environment. Exactly one instance of this lab will run per class.
- Participant: This is the lab that end-users will launch. There can potentially be more than one lab in this role per class, but they will all connect to the same shared environment instance.

Networks within the shared environment lab can be made available to participant labs, making it possible for participants to connect to each other and/or to virtual machines within the shared environment. To enable Shared Class Environment for this lab profile, select one of the options from the drop-down menu, Shared Environment or Participant.

Save/Cancel Options

Field	Description
Allow User to Cancel Labs	Allows the user to cancel the lab at any point.
Allow user to Save labs	Allows the user to save the lab in its current state and return at a later time. Users have a specified maximum number of labs that can be saved at a time. Once users reach their maximum number of saved lab instances, they will need to cancel one of the saved labs to be able to save a new lab instance. The default maximum instances per user is typically 2 but may vary by organization. Note that saved labs are only saved for 48 hours. Users can extend the saved lab expiration by resuming the lab and saving again. Each save sets the timer back to 48 hours. After48 hours has passed, the lab progress and components are discarded and cannot be recovered.
Allow User to Disconnect from Lab Client	Allows the user to disconnect from the lab client and leave the lab running.
Auto-Save incomplete Labs	Enables the lab to automatically save incomplete labs after a specified amount of time has passed.
Save/Cancel Labs When Last Console Sync Exceeds	Amount of time given between console syncs, before the lab will automatically cancel or save.
Save/Cancel labs when last Activity Exceeds	Amount of time given of inactivity before the lab will automatically cancel or save.
Activity Required to Enable Auto-Save	Amount of active time in the lab given before the lab will automatically save.
Maximum Allow{{glossary.Snapshots}}	Maximum amount of snapshots that are allowed.
