Local Host Cache (LHC) kicks in if the DC fails, right?

Wait, are you sure about that? I thought they could fallback to another zone.

Zone 1 is the backup for Zone 2, so that makes sense.

Totally agree, that's how it works!

A VDA in Zone 2 won't register if the Delivery Controller fails.

I’m leaning towards option C because if the Delivery Controller fails, the VDAs in that zone might not have any way to register at all.

I feel like the Local Host Cache plays a role here, but I can't recall if it allows registration or just helps with failover.

I think I saw a similar question in our practice tests where the VDA had to register with a different zone if one failed. Maybe it's Zone 1?

I remember something about how VDAs register with the Delivery Controllers, but I'm not sure if they can switch zones like that.

I'm a little confused by this question. The Citrix environment seems complex, and I'm not entirely sure how the VDAs would behave if a Delivery Controller fails in a satellite zone. I'll need to carefully read through the question and options to try to figure out the right answer, but this one feels a bit tricky to me.

Okay, I think I know how to approach this. The key is understanding how the Citrix zones and Delivery Controllers work together. If a Delivery Controller in a satellite zone fails, the VDAs in that zone should still be able to register, either in the primary zone or another satellite zone. I'll review the options and select the one that best matches that scenario.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The diagram shows a complex Citrix environment with multiple zones, so I'll need to think through how the VDAs would register if a Delivery Controller fails in one of the satellite zones. I'll read the question and options carefully to try to determine the right answer.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question about how the Citrix environment would behave if a Delivery Controller fails. I think I have a good understanding of the concepts here, so I'll carefully review the options and choose the correct answer.

Wait, which zone is the primary one again? I feel like I should know this, but my Citrix knowledge is a bit hazy. Maybe I should have paid more attention during the training sessions.

I'm surprised the question didn't mention something about the VDA machines staging a coup and overthrowing the Delivery Controller. That would be a fun twist!

With the Delivery Controller down, the VDA machines in Zone 2 will have to find another way to register. Option D seems like the logical choice - they'll use the Local Host Cache.

If the Delivery Controller in Satellite Zone 2 comes back online, the VDA machines will register within that zone.
LE

But what if the Delivery Controller in Satellite Zone 2 comes back online?
DE

Option D seems like the best choice. The VDA machines will use the Local Host Cache.
YO

If the Delivery Controller in Satellite Zone 2 fails, the VDA machines in that zone will not be able to register. Option C is correct.
WI
Wilbert

No, they will not register in any zone if the Delivery Controller in Satellite Zone 2 fails.
RA

So, the VDA machines will not register within the Primary Zone or Satellite Zone 1?
HY
Hyun

Yes, that's correct. Option C states that the VDA machines in Satellite Zone 2 will NOT register.
KE
