Citrix Gateway 13 Administration — Question 18

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator needs to add 10 new 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: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because assigning a weight of 2 to the services on the old servers means that they will handle half the connections compared to the new servers, which is necessary given their double capacity. The other options incorrectly assign weights to the new servers or use inappropriate values, which would not achieve the desired load distribution.
