Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Advanced Configure and Manage — Question 25

Scenario: A Citrix Engineer has two datacenters: Site A, the main datacenter and Site B, the secondary datacenter. Both datacenters have Citrix App Layering 4.3 installed.
How can the engineer ensure that all layers are available in Site A and Site B?

Answer options

• A. Reconfigure ELM Site A and ELM Site B to use DFSR for all layers
• B. Configure layer synchronization directly between ELM Site A and ELM Site B using the Citrix App Layering console
• C. Export all the Standard Layers directly from ELM Site A to ELM Site B and export all other layers to a Windows Share, then import them to Site B
• D. Export all layers from ELM Site A to a Windows Share, then import them to Site B

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because exporting all layers to a Windows Share and then importing them to Site B ensures that all layers are consistently available and can be accessed from the secondary datacenter. Options A and B do not provide a method for ensuring availability across both sites, and option C complicates the process by introducing unnecessary steps for Standard Layer exports.
