Scenario: While assessing the User Layer, a Citrix Architect finds that most of the internal users connect using corporate-owned laptops, desktop devices, and thin clients. Many of these laptops and desktop devices are running Windows 10, while the remainder of the machines are running Windows 7 and are in the process of being migrated to Windows 10. Some users also connect using personal devices.
Currently, Citrix Receiver is manually installed on any endpoint device added to the company. All these devices use Citrix Receiver version 4.8 and above. Some of the internal users with Windows laptops are experiencing issues in which devices such as a keyboard, mouse, a monitor connected to a docking station or a
USB hub are NOT usable in an HDX session.
Which action should the architect recommend to provide a uniform user experience for all users?

  • A. Recreate user accounts in Active Directory
  • B. Upgrade all clients to the latest version of Citrix Receiver
  • C. Upgrade drivers of peripheral devices
  • D. Recreate user profiles

Scenario: A Citrix Architect needs to design a new XenApp and XenDesktop 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 and Windows Server 2016 for the Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machines.
As part of an application analysis performed earlier in the project, the information shown in the Exhibit was collected regarding one of the required applications.
Click the Exhibit button to view the information.


Additionally, the customer has the following objectives:
-> Minimize the amount of additional infrastructure components.
-> Utilize thin clients as endpoints in order to reduce costs.
-> Users should NOT have direct access to the thin client operating system.
How should the architect install the application?

  • A. Directly on a VDA machine image and accessed through a virtual desktop session
  • B. On an Application Layer using Citrix App Layering and included in a layered image and accessed through a virtual desktop session
  • C. Directly on endpoint devices and included in a virtual desktop session using the Local App Access feature

Scenario: A Citrix Architect needs to design a new XenApp and XenDesktop environment. The design will require three different StoreFront Stores and three corresponding Citrix Receiver for Web sites. Each different Store and Citrix Receiver for Web site will serve different business units. Each of these will also require their own branding and SSL certificate. The solution should remain supported by Citrix.
The architect has already installed StoreFront on a server.
How can the architect achieve the desired design while keeping cost and maintenance requirements as low as possible?

  • A. Create two extra IIS Sites, bind the certificates in IIS manager, copy the StoreFront configurations to the two new IIS Sites, and use a text editor to configure all three StoreFront Stores.
  • B. Deploy two extra virtual servers, bind the certificates in IIS manager, and install StoreFront again on each new virtual server.
  • C. Create two extra IIS Sites, bind the certificates in IIS manager, copy the StoreFront configuration to the two new IIS Sites, and use the StoreFront console to configure all three StoreFront Stores.
  • D. Create two extra IIS Sites, bind the certificates in IIS manager, use PowerShell to deploy additional Stores to the two new IIS Sites, and use a text editor to configure all three StoreFront Stores.


Answer : C

Scenario: A Citrix Architect has designed an active/passive XenApp and XenDesktop environment for a customer, where the passive datacenter serves as the disaster recovery datacenter for all users.

-> SQL is deployed in the active datacenter.
-> Local Host Cache is enabled.
Two StoreFront servers are deployed in each datacenter aggregating resources from the Delivery Controllers in the respective datacenter.


-> Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machines are deployed in both datacenters and configured to register with Delivery Controllers in their zone.
What would happen if the SQL Server in the primary datacenter were turned off?

  • A. VDA machines from the primary datacenter would register with the Delivery Controllers in the passive datacenter.
  • B. GSLB will NOT identify that the SQL Server is down and sessions cannot launch.
  • C. StoreFront in the primary datacenter would still be able to launch sessions.
  • D. GSLB will start redirecting connections to the secondary datacenter.
