Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

A mandatory profile is a type of roaming profile that is read-only and does not save any changes made by users during their sessions. A mandatory profile can be applied to a group of users who share a common desktop environment and do not need to customize their settings or preferences.

A mandatory profile can ensure that a group of base settings are applied to Citrix-based VDI users at each logon, regardless of any changes they make during their sessions. A mandatory profile can also improve performance, security, and consistency of the VDI environment.

To use a mandatory profile with Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, you need to create a template profile on a reference machine, rename its NTUSER.DAT file to NTUSER.MAN, and copy it to a network share.Then you need to configure Profile Management policies or Active Directory settings to point to the network share location for your users2.

Ah, the age-old problem of slow desktops in an ESXi-based Nutanix cluster. Happens to the best of us. I'd just turn it off and on again, that usually works. Seriously though, what's an 'ESXi'?

Erasure coding, huh? That sounds like a fancy technical term. I bet it's causing all sorts of problems. Option D gets my vote, even though I don't really know what it means.

You know, I was thinking the same thing as Annelle, but now I'm second-guessing myself. Maybe the issue is with the desktop storage container and the Inline Compression being disabled. Option C looks like the winner to me.

I agree, option C seems like the most likely cause of the problem.

Yeah, that could definitely be causing the slowdown on that host.

I'm not so sure about that. Disabling the High Performance policy seems more likely to cause the problem, so I'm going with option B.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'm leaning towards option A - the High Performance host power policy being enabled. That could definitely cause some performance issues.
