Citrix Gateway 13 Administration — Question 1

A Citrix Administrator is configuring a NetScaler high availability (HA) pair and needs to ensure that one NetScaler is UP and primary at all times to ensure the business websites are always available.
What does the administrator need to do ensure that the NetScalers still handle web traffic in the event that both nodes become unavailable or fail a health check?

Answer options

• A. Disable HA Fail-safe mode on the Secondary NetScaler.
• B. Configure HA Fail-safe mode on each NetScaler independently.
• C. Disable HA Fail-safe mode on the Primary NetScaler only.
• D. Configure HA Fail-safe mode on the Primary NetScaler only.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because configuring HA Fail-safe mode on the Primary NetScaler ensures that it can still handle traffic even if both nodes fail. Options A and C incorrectly suggest disabling HA Fail-safe mode, which would compromise availability. Option B does not specify the correct setup for maintaining traffic during failures.
