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?

Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. Currently, the environment is configured as 2 locations with identical Citrix Virtual Desktops Sites. Each Site has 2 Delivery Controllers, 2 StoreFront servers, and 1 Citrix ADC high-availability pair. The same applications have been published from both Sites for all users. Two zones (Zone A and Zone B) are configured in each Site with 1 Delivery Controller in each zone. The Microsoft Exchange server is only accessible from Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machines in Zone A in each Site.

Six access requirements have been identified:

✑ Users should have a single URL when accessing resources from different Sites.

✑ Users should always connect to the data center closest to their location.

✑ Applications added to Favorites within the Citrix Workspace app should be retained when accessed from different Sites.

✑ Launched applications and desktops should always connect through a local Citrix ADC.

✑ No duplication of applications published from different Sites.

✑ Microsoft Outlook should always launch in Zone A.

What should the architect recommend configuring to avoid duplication of the same applications being delivered from different Sites?

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?
