Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Advanced Administration — Question 53

Scenario:
A Citrix Engineer is managing a XenApp and XenDesktop environment that has been built with the following site architecture:
-The environment consists of one Site with three zones.
-The Primary Zone is located in datacenter.
-Satellite Zone 1 is located in datacenter.
-Satellite Zone 2 is located in datacenter C.
-Gateway A is in datacenter.
-Gateway B is in datacenter.
-A NetScaler Gateway has been set up in datacenter A and datacenter Each Gateway has access to all zones.
-The StoreFront server group is located in the Primary Zone and enumerates all resources within the Site.
-Delivery Controllers are configured in all three zones.
-Application B is available in Satellite Zone 1 only.
-Optimal Gateway Routing has been configured so that Gateway A is preferred for the Primary Zone and Satellite Zone 2; Gateway B is preferred for Satellite
Zone 1.
A user located near datacenter A logs in through NetScaler Gateway and attempts to launch Application B.
Which behavior is expected in this scenario?

Answer options

• A. Resource enumeration occurs using Gateway B; the HDX connection is established using Gateway.
• B. Resource enumeration and the HDX connection are established using Gateway.
• C. Resource enumeration occurs using Gateway A; the HDX connections is established using Gateway.
• D. Resource enumeration and the HDX connection are established using Gateway.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because the user is trying to access Application B, which is only available in Satellite Zone 1, and thus resource enumeration must occur through Gateway B. The HDX connection is then established using Gateway A, as it is preferred for the Primary Zone and Satellite Zone 2, but not for the application launch in this case.
