Hi

i need to reserve a cisco sandbox lab, how to do that?

why every time i access to this link https://devnetsandbox.cisco.com/DevNet using my webex account the result is the website redirect me here

why they redirect me on this page? where is the sandbox?

Hello Mohamed Atallah,

I think....Cisco has recently switched to a new sandbox platform and it will take little time to reach a steady state. For more details...Please go through the link...

Reference: https://community.cisco.com/t5/devnet-sandbox/active-environments-launched-from-this-blueprint-reached/td-p/4976470

Also Be aware of two things.... There will still be an upper limit of concurrent CML labs we can run. This is due to the large footprint of CML. Secondly, there is no scheduler on our new system so its first come first serve. This is the case for all sandbox labs.

Best regards

Try signing in using your Cisco ID, this is my normal method of logging in and works ok (just tested now)

Hope this helps

ok sir, what does this message referring to?

[bigevilbeard]

It mean the sandbox you are selecting does not have any capacity left in the resource pool to reserve for you. It is sort of like a 'try again later message' or 'select another sandbox'.

Hope this helps.

but sir, i`m trying since 1 month ago. that does not happened with me before. what is going on?

also sir, as i told you before if you remember me , i want to build my own lab on cisco sandbox exactly like what i did on GNS and using a different sandbox does not give me what i`m doing exactly like what we tried before. what should i do now?

@Mohamed Atallah as mentioned if you are trying to reserve the Cisco Modeling Labs the Cisxo team advised this is running at capacity and more resources will be added in the new year to allow more resources and reservations.

Hope this helps.

I am seeing it running at capacity as well for the last 2 days. It shows 40 instances of it running.

The team noted in another thread, 40 instances is the current CML limit.
