Citrix 1Y0-403 Exam - Topic 8 Question 103 Discussion

Actual exam question for Citrix's 1Y0-403 exam

Question #: 103
Topic #: 8

Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment for a company with 2 branch offices connected over a WAN link. Each location will maintain its own Citrix Site and be configured for disaster recovery (DR) to allow users to failover if 1 Site has an outage. Management wants to implement a strong profile solution to manage user profiles. Each user maintains a profile that consists of user documents, application settings, and other personalization settings that must be available to them at all times.

Which step should the architect perform to ensure that profile requirements are met?

AImplement Citrix Profile Management for all users with Windows Folder Redirection configured, and Microsoft Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) active-active profile replication configured over the WAN connection.

BImplement Citrix Profile Management for all users with Microsoft Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) active-passive profile replication configured over the WAN connection.

CImplement Ciitrix Profile Management for all users with Microsoft Distnbuted File System Replication (DFSR) active-active profile replication configured over the WAN connection.

DImplement Citrix Profile Management for all users with Active write back enabled and Microsoft Distributed File System Replication (DFSR) active-active profile replication configured over the WAN connection.

I think we practiced a similar question where DFSR was mentioned, but I can't recall if it was active-active or active-passive that we decided on.

I remember we discussed the importance of using active-active replication for profile management to ensure high availability, but I'm not sure if that's the best option here.

This seems straightforward to me. The question is clearly asking for the best solution to ensure the profile requirements are met, and based on the information provided, option C looks like the way to go. I'll mark that one and move on.

I'm not too familiar with Citrix Profile Management, so I'll need to spend some time reviewing the details before I feel confident answering this. The scenario mentions some specific requirements, so I'll want to make sure I understand how the different options meet those needs.

Okay, I think I've got this. The best approach is to use Citrix Profile Management with DFSR active-active replication over the WAN. That way, the user profiles will be highly available and automatically replicated between the two sites for disaster recovery.

B? Really? Passive replication over the WAN? That's like trying to share a hair scrunchie with your sibling - it's just not gonna work!
