Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Assessment, Design and Advanced Configurations — Question 47

Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. Management has requested dynamic distribution of users between the primary and backup data centers to ensure that all available hardware is utilized during normal operations.
What is the biggest risk the architect should highlight to the customer when designing the profile strategy?

Answer options

• A. Scale-Out File Servers are required to support active-active profile deployments
• B. Using Microsoft Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) to replicate user profiles requires significant bandwidth
• C. Replicating profiles between the 2 data centers will double storage costs
• D. Roaming profiles are NOT supported in active-active Microsoft Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) deployments

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because roaming profiles cannot function properly in an active-active DFSR setup, which poses a significant risk to user experience. Options A, B, and C, while relevant concerns, do not directly address the compatibility issues associated with roaming profiles in this specific deployment scenario.
