Citrix 1Y0-241 Exam - Topic 7 Question 65 Discussion

Actual exam question for Citrix's 1Y0-241 exam

Question #: 65
Topic #: 7

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator is configuring a Citrix ADC high availability (HA) pair with an existing primary Citrix ADC with all resources configured. The administrator adds the secondary Citrix ADC in HA and discovers that the configuration on the existing primary was removed and is now the secondary Citrix ADC in the HA pair.

Which two configurations could the administrator have used to prevent this from happening? (Choose two.)

ASet the primary Citrix ADC to stay primary in the Configure HA Node settings.

BSet the secondary Citrix ADC to stay secondary in the Configure HA Node settings.

CEnable HA monitoring on all secondary device interfaces.

DEnable HA monitoring on all primary device interfaces.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, C

Forcing the node to stay secondary works on both standalone and secondary nodes. On a standalone node, you must use this option before you can add a node to create an HA pair. When you add the new node, the existing node stops processing traffic and becomes the secondary node. The new node becomes the primary node.

On a standalone node, you must use this option before you can add a node to create an HA pair. When you add the new node, the existing node continues to function as the primary node, and the new node becomes the secondary node.

A is a must, but B seems a bit redundant.

Wait, how did the primary get switched like that?

Seems like a rookie mistake, honestly.

I thought enabling HA monitoring was enough?

Definitely A and B to avoid that issue.

I’m a bit confused about the HA settings; I thought both primary and secondary needed specific configurations to avoid issues like this.

I practiced a similar question where the primary ADC configuration was lost, and I feel like setting the secondary to stay secondary might be a key point.

I think enabling HA monitoring on the primary interfaces could help, but I can't recall if it directly relates to this scenario.

I remember something about setting the primary to stay primary, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right option here.

I'm a bit confused on the difference between options A and B. Do we need to set both the primary and secondary to stay in their roles, or is just one of them enough?

Okay, I'm pretty sure the answer is to set the primary ADC to stay primary and enable HA monitoring on the secondary interfaces. That should keep the configuration stable.

Hmm, I think the key here is to prevent the primary ADC from being demoted to secondary. Options A and B sound like they could be the right choices.

This is a tricky one. I'll need to carefully review the HA configuration options to figure out the best approach.

Based on my understanding, I think the best approach is to set the primary ADC to stay primary (option A) and also enable HA monitoring on all the secondary interfaces (option C). That should prevent the configuration from being lost.

This seems straightforward to me. I'll go with option A - querying the Standard User and running the test method under that context.

I'm pretty sure the two caching modes are active cache and no cache, but I'll double-check the options to be sure.
