      Workaround:

      Description: The course needs a mechanism that allows students to properly catch up if they need to recreate the lab environment at a certain point or start in the middle of the course.  The existing course scripts are weak (or missing) on this point.  In some cases the lab start scripts do ensure that the right infrastructure services are running, but they might not ensure that the network is in the expected configuration or that all Ansible materials from previous hands-on activities are available. 

      David Bucknell wrote in DO447-64:

      "As far as lack of catchup scripts is concerned I do not think any class should even be going live without thought as to how an instructor will catch up if in say a vt environment they are told that they need to recreate the lab environment, and where necessary write any scripts to get help. At the moment the lab environments are being destroyed and recreated a lot which makes the problem worse as well."

      Therefore, I'm categorizing this as a Bug rather than an Improvement issue.
