Yes, you can enroll in another course and request a separate lab instance for it. Each course that includes a lab typically provides its own unique instance, and you are allowed to work on multiple instances concurrently.

However, keep in mind:

  • You’ll need to manage your time and focus effectively across both instances.

  • Make sure each instance is used only for the corresponding course tasks, as mixing configurations between courses may cause issues.

  • Also, confirm the expiration dates of each instance, since they may be different.

Hi @Sasipreetham 

Practically, you need one lab instance for each course because sometimes a lab requires a specific plugin that comes with the course. However, in some cases, I have used the same instance for two courses as well.

Actually her questions is different, it's about request another lab instance and working on it as well - using both instance concurrently. 

 

One lab instance can only be used for one course. She talked about two lab instances in two separate courses and whether that can be concurrent.
