Scenario: The IT team of a company configured its Citrix environment on Microsoft Azure. Load on the servers is nominal during the off season, but during peak season, load increases on the infrastructure servers. This load varies from year to year. A Citrix Architect is asked to design a solution that dynamically increases and decreases the number of infrastructure servers.
What should the architect recommend the IT team create in Microsoft Azure to meet this demand?
A. Availability sets
B. Resource group
C. Scale sets
D. Availability domains
After reviewing a Proof of Concept (PoC) environment for Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, the corporate security team advises that user access to Regedit, command line, and PowerShell must be disabled.
Which technology can a Citrix Architect use to address this requirement with the least amount of effort?
A. Citrix ADC Endpoint Analysis (EPA)
B. Citrix policies
C. Citrix Workspace ADMX templates
D. Citrix ADC SmartControl
E. Citrix Workspace Environment Management (WEM)
Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. The customer previously installed all applications locally on managed laptops and desktops, but is willing to evaluate other application delivery methods as part of the new deployment. The environment will be standardized on Windows 10 for the Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machines.
As part of an application analysis performed earlier in the project, the information in the exhibit was collected regarding 1 of the required applications.
Click the Exhibit button to view the information.
The customer's security policies mandate that all development software must run within the corporate data center, but should appear to the user as if it is running locally on the virtual machine (VM).
How should the architect recommend deploying the application?
A. Use Desktop OS machines to deliver VM hosted applications.
B. Install it directly on the endpoint devices, and include it in a virtual desktop session using the Local App Access feature.
C. Install it in an Application Layer using Citrix App Layering, then present it to users as an Elastic Layer during a virtual a virtual desktop session.
D. Stream it to a VDA machine using Microsoft App-V, and access it through a virtual desktop session.
E. Push it to users with a Workspace Environment Management (WEM) action option.
Scenario: A Citrix Architect needs to implement Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops. Based on the assessment and early stages of the design, the requirements in the exhibit have been identified.
Click the Exhibit button to view the requirements.
Which tier of storage should the architect consider implementing, based on the requirement?
A. DAS
B. Local
C. NAS
D. SAN
Scenario: A Citrix Architect is using LDAP as single-factor authentication (SFA). The architect is migrating the environment to Citrix Cloud and wants to retain the same authentication, procedure for Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service in Citrix Cloud.
Which deployment strategy should the architect use for the Access Layer to ensure that the solution reduces management and does NOT incur additional costs?
A. Use Citrix Cloud Gateway service and Citrix Cloud Workspace.
B. Set up Citrix ADC with bring-your-own license (BYOL) and StoreFront in a public cloud.
C. Set up Citrix ADC VPX and StoreFront on premises.
D. Use Citrix Cloud Gateway service and on-premises StoreFront.
Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a pod-based architecture in a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. The plan is to create three pods for different Resource Layer types:
-
Windows 10 VDI (non-persistent)
-
Windows Server 2016 hosted shared desktops (non-persistent)
-
Windows 10 VDI (persistent)
Which three components can be shared between the three pods? (Choose three.)
A. Citrix Delivery Controller
B. Citrix StoreFront
C. Citrix License Server
D. Citrix Director
E. Citrix Site Database
Scenario: An automobile manufacturer in Germany has deployed a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops solution for its employees using Citrix Cloud and uses a resource location in Germany. Recently, they acquired an automobile manufacturer in Japan. Since then, users from Japan have reported issues regarding slowness and degraded performance of the application hosted in the German resource location.
How can a Citrix Architect improve the performance of the application for users in Japan?
A. Implement Optimal Gateway Routing within the existing resource location.
B. Create a new Site for Japan within Germany's resource location
C. Provision new resources in Japan's resource location
D. Implement Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB)
Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a multi-data center Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment that will use Citrix Provisioning (PVS) to manage Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machine images. Each data center will have a separate PVS farm. During design discussions, the architect created a diagram to depict the way in which vDisk files will be replicated among PVS farms, based on the available storage for the vDisk stores.
Click the Exhibit button to view the diagram.
Overall, the customer has identified 3 objectives for the image-replication process:
Administrative time required to replicate images among farms must be minimized.
The process must be usable by storage administrators without PVS farm administrative permissions.
Pre-existing infrastructure and processes should be used where possible.
Which method should the architect use to replicate vDisk files among data centers?
A. Manual copy
B. Scheduled RoboCopy commands
C. SAN replication
D. vDisk Replicator Utility
E. Microsoft Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) Namespaces
Scenario: A Citrix Architect is assessing an existing infrastructure for a company that has storage challenges as a result of hyper-growth. They currently have a large IT infrastructure that consists of 15 hypervisor hosts and more than 200 virtual machines (VMs) worldwide. Management has advised the architect that they need to improve their storage infrastructure to include high performance and scalability.
Which storage solution should the architect implement within this infrastructure?
A. DAS
B. SAN
C. NAS
D. Local
