Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Associate — Question 152

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator needs to add 10 new web servers to an existing server farm. The new servers are configured to serve the same applications and connections and are twice the capacity of the existing servers. The administrator wants to ensure that they are being fully utilized. Currently in the environment, the default load-balancing method is being used.
To ensure that only the 10 new servers are receiving twice the connections of the old servers without changing the load balancing to the rest of the environment, the administrator needs to add a weight of _____________ to the services attached to the _________ servers. (Choose the correct option to complete the sentence.)

Answer options

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because assigning a weight of 2 to the new servers will ensure that they receive double the connections compared to the existing servers. The other options either incorrectly assign the weight to the old servers or use an incorrect weight value, which would not achieve the desired load balancing outcome.
