Hi Everyone,
While studying for the NCP-AII exam, I realized that most candidates
will never have hands-on access to DGX hardware, so I built a
browser-based simulator that lets you practice datacenter
administration commands and troubleshooting workflows without
needing the real thing.
What it is:
- A free, open-source practice environment called DC Lab Sim
- Simulated terminal with commands like nvidia-smi, dcgmi, ibstat,
sinfo, and more - 32 guided troubleshooting scenarios across all 5 exam domains
- Practice quizzes organized by domain weight
What it is NOT:
- This is not developed, endorsed, or affiliated with NVIDIA in any way
- It is not a substitute for official NVIDIA training materials or
hands-on experience - Simulated outputs are approximations for educational purposes only
The project is meant to complement the excellent official
documentation and training resources that NVIDIA provides. I built
it because I believe the more ways people have to practice, the
better prepared they’ll be.

I’d welcome any feedback from the community, especially from those
currently studying for or who have taken the exam. If anything is
inaccurate or could better reflect real-world workflows, I’m happy
to improve it.
