  Trying to evaluate and try 2012 on a virtual lab in microsoft site.

  http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/en/us/learning-center/virtual-labs.aspx

  I have never used virtual lab before, I see

  The introduction of the lab says the following,

  SQL Server 2012 - Upgrading to SQL Server 2012 (SQL 151)StartIn this hands-on-lab you will learn on how to upgrade to SQL Server 2012.You will learn how to use SQL Server Upgrade Advisor and Distributed Replay to upgrade a SQL Server 2005/2008 database to SQL Server 2012.

  But when I open it, I don't see if there is a lab step by step instructions, and I don't have a password to login to the virtual computer called for user contoso\labuser,

  Nor I can find any instructions of how to use the virtual lab.

  Any one who used this before, could you shed some lights on this?

  THanks

  When the virtual lab opens, you should get two windows. One is the VM and one is the manual.

  The password will be in the manual and is most likely: pass@word1
