Lab Overview

DC/OS (the datacenter operating system) is an open-source, distributed operating system based on the Apache Mesos distributed systems kernel. DC/OS manages multiple machines in the cloud or on-premises from a single interface. In this Lab, you will get familiar with both the DC/OS graphical user interface (GUI) and the DC/OS command line interface (CLI) as you install packages on DC/OS from the Mesosphere DC/OS Service Catalog.

Lab Objectives

Upon completion of this Lab you will be able to:

  • Discover and install Mesosphere Catalog packages using the DC/OS GUI and CLI
  • Monitor a DC/OS cluster using the DC/OS GUI and CLI
  • Delete DC/OS services using the DC/OS GUI and CLI

Lab Prerequisites

You should be familiar with:

  • Basic DC/OS concepts including master nodes, agents, services, tasks, and Marathon
  • Working at the command-line in Linux (for the CLI Lab Steps only)
