Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Associate — Question 147

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator needs to configure persistence on a Global Server Load Balancing (GSLB) virtual server to which a service is bound, so that the service continues to serve requests from the client event after it is disabled manually, accepting new requests or connections only to honor persistence. After a configured period of time, no new requests or connections are directed to the service and all of the existing connections are closed.
Which parameter can the administrator configure while disabling the service to achieve this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Request Threshold
• B. Persistence Time-Out
• C. Persistence Threshold
• D. Wait Time

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Persistence Time-Out, as it allows the service to continue handling existing connections for a defined period after being disabled, ensuring persistence. The other options do not directly control the behavior of existing connections when a service is taken offline; they either relate to connection limits or timing that does not serve the specific need for persistence in this context.
