Scenario: During an assessment of a Citrix Infrastructure, a Citrix Architect finds that there are four active Sites. Each Site has one NetScaler SDX pair and two StoreFront servers in a server group to allow access for internal and external users. Users have to use different URLs when they access resources from different Sites. Single-factor authentication is used for both internal and external access. NetScaler appliances are placed in the DMZ with the appropriate firewall ports configured to allow Citrix traffic. Many of the internal users connect using corporate-owned laptops and some external users also connect using personal devices.
Management is planning to create one more Site and has asked the architect to perform scalability testing and advise how many NetScaler appliances are needed for the new Site.
What is the primary determining factor that the architect can use to help identify the appropriate NetScaler platform in this scenario?
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 in the Exhibit was collected regarding one of the required applications.

How should the architect install the application?
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 which have Receiver Desktop Lock installed.
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. The IT team is planning to automate a process to update all the devices with the latest version of Citrix Receiver and to automate another process for automatic installation of Citrix Receiver without incurring extra costs and maintenance.
During the initial testing of the Citrix Receiver Auto-Update feature, the architect observed that the Citrix Receiver Auto-Update feature does NOT work on some of the machines.
Which two reasons could be causing this issue? (Choose two.)
Scenario: A Citrix Architect is performing a XenApp and XenDesktop design. During a discussion with the server hardware team, two potential network configurations are proposed for the XenServer hosts.

Scenario: A Citrix Architect is using LDAP as single-factor authentication. The architect is migrating the environment to Citrix Cloud and wants to retain the same authentication procedure for XenApp and XenDesktop service in Citrix Cloud.
Which deployment strategy should the architect use for NetScaler and StoreFront to ensure that the solution reduces management overhead without incurring additional costs?
Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new, 2,000-user XenApp and XenDesktop environment. The environment will use Windows Server 2016 for all Site infrastructure components (Delivery Controllers, StoreFront servers, Citrix Director). Machine Creation Services (MCS) will be used to provision Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machines.
The environment will include two primary use cases:
The IT team has NOT yet purchased the hardware that will be used for the environment and will build the Hardware Layer components for the environment based on the architect’s recommendations.
How should the architect design the hypervisor resource pools based on Citrix leading practice?
Scenario: After a recent security assessment, a Citrix Architect recommends blocking unnecessary peripheral types by disabling the associated HDX channels. Currently, the environment is intended to support the peripheral types listed in the Exhibit.

Which four HDX virtual channels should the architect disable, based on the peripherals required in the environment? (Choose four.)
Scenario: A Citrix Architect designed an active/passive XenApp and XenDesktop environment for a customer, where the passive Site serves as the disaster recovery Site for all users.
The architect configured a DFS root for user profiles and redirected folders and configured DFS-R to replicate the user profiles and data to a fileserver in the disaster recovery Site.
During failover testing, no issues were reported; however, today the customer has an unexpected outage in StoreFront on the active Site which causes sessions to start flowing to the passive Site.
The customer reports that several users are experiencing issues logging on and has also stated that Citrix Director is NOT showing any issues for the passive Site.
What is likely causing this issue?
Scenario: A Citrix Architect needs to design a new XenApp and XenDesktop environment.
The architect has identified the Resource Layer requirements shown in the Exhibit.
Click the Exhibit button to view the requirements.
Additionally, management at the organization has identified the following general Resource Layer requirements:
Which profile type should the architect use for the Customer Service group?
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?

Scenario: A Citrix Architect needs to design a disaster recovery (DR) XenApp and XenDesktop Site that will be hosted in Citrix Cloud and Microsoft Azure. The DR Site is expected to support 2,000 Desktop OS Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machines.
The architect should include_________Cloud Connectors in the Azure resource location, each with a minimum of___________vCPUs and__________GB of RAM to avoid unnecessary over-provisioning of resources and follow Citrix leading practices. (Choose the correct option to complete the sentence.)
Scenario: A Citrix Architect needs to manage the disaster recovery process for a XenApp and XenDesktop environment. The environment currently consists of an active datacenter which is typically accessed by used and a disaster recovery (DR) datacenter which would be used in the event that a disaster impacts the primary datacenter. The overall environment has been designed to actively replicate user data and application data from the primary datacenter recovery datacenter using Microsoft DFS-R. Management has made it a proirity to minimize the loss of data when failing over between datacenters.
Due to an earthquake, the primary datacenter suffers a major outage that affects multiple components. Management has decided to fail over the DR datacenter, and the architect has blocked access to the primary datacenter to prevent new attempts to connect to the XenApp and XenDesktop Site there.
Which three actions must the architect perform to meet the company priorities before enabling access to the DR datacenter? (Choose three.)
Scenario: A Citrix Architect designed an environment where policies will be deployed using Workspace Environment Management (WEM). The architect decided to install two WEM Infrastructure Services servers in order to meet the expected load in the environment.
