Re: CCIE DATA Center lab locations

Hi Srinivas,

Other than Brussels, San Jose, Sydney and Tokyo which all now test the CCIE DC
exam, RTP in the US will be opening up on Feb 1 for testing and you can
already book into that lab online, but all seats are already taken up. All
seats are also taken for San Jose. The online calendar shows no availability
for either location. Sydney and Tokyo have dates as early as March, and
Brussels actually has a few February dates.
There is currently only 1 seat per location per week offered. This is due to
the fact that Cisco only has 2 CCIE DC racks built (believe it or not). Maybe
their gear is too expensive for them to build more racks with ;-). Anyhow,
this means they test one rack and grade the other rack from the previous day.
Here is a blog post with a bit more information:

And here are all of the Cisco locations with current testing capabilities.
