What about a full day of Linux training in the training room? Like a class training, not a session.

That seems to be the local favorite.

Probably. But Ubuntu, Suse, would be great, too.
Could also do FreePBX, Solaris or something as well.

A session on FreePBX would be great! And may be complete Zabbix, ELK training as well?

Either of those would be great... SIP this year, Zabbix or ELK next year... and then the remaining one after that.

Now you're talking about tracks. A linux track might do something like...
Bring a laptop with at least 200 GB free space and 8 GB RAM. Install VirtualBox, then start the day building a Linux VM, and each session builds upon the previous session's build.

Then install the aetherstore demo and put it on all the machines in the training and drop the ISO on it. Then whoever needs the ISO mount the drive to it.

I wonder if having a permanent lab set up for people to play on would be good? Something where people could come in and sit down and do projects.... maybe that is set up and they just connect via their own laptops. If we have a lab on the LAN we might be able to have several different things all running at once and do some cool stuff.

Wifi? Maybe a demo on capacity planning with 802.11ac? Something I'm still trying to figure out myself.
I love the Linux track idea -

I could do a half day or better session on setting up freepbx if it was on the lab platform instead of my own vultr account.

This is the big thing.
If we had 3 of these big training thing and sessions, the attendees would be microfractured at the current attendance levels.

Yes, although for a big training class (big meaning really interactive and in depth) you can't have many people. A good classroom setting is often pretty small, say fewer than a dozen.

Yes, but if there are 2 classes and a presentation at the same time, even with a small class that can be a significant pull from the presentations.
Don't get me wrong I really want to do hands on training. I was a voice in favor of that when this was all being put together initially. I realize why that is hard without slightly higher attendee count though too.

@JaredBusch oh, offline I had proposed to the @Minion-Queen that the training hands on deep dives be a day earlier. Not overlapping sessions.

So, kinda like SW, SW training the day before the two day con.

As someone who does everything IT relayed at my work, I have a very difficult time becoming very adept at any one area. I would love to see a couple hours set aside where one "expert" was placed at different tables (ie Scott would sit at a storage table) and be available to answer questions for that topic. Every year at Spiceworld and now MC, I get some info from another attendee that process to be the most valuable piece of information I get.
Possible topics:
VMWARE/Hyper-V/Virtualization
AV/Security
Linux
Firewalls
Switches/Routers
Backup
