Citrix Cloud is the hosting platform that minimizes management and maintenance for administrators while maintaining control of the VDA machines1.

According to Citrix documentation, to make a configuration change for a StoreFront server group, the change should be made on one StoreFront server in the group, and then the Propagate Changes feature should be used to synchronize the change across the group1

According to the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Deployment and Administration documentation1, the collation sequence for the site database should be _100_CI_AS_KS. This collation sequence is case-insensitive, accent-sensitive, kana-sensitive, and width-insensitive. It is also compatible with the SQL Server mirroring feature. Other collation sequences might cause errors or unexpected behavior when using SQL Server mirroring2.

The PowerShell command Get-Service -DisplayName *citrix* is used to display all the Citrix services installed on the Delivery Controller. This command filters services by their display name to only show those related to Citrix, which typically include various components of the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Deployment and Administration.

The dig +trace command can be used to resolve DNS requests by tracing the path from the root name servers to the authoritative name servers. This can help identify any issues with DNS resolution or delegation. The nslookup command can also be used to query DNS records, but it does not provide the trace option. The curl command can be used to transfer data from or to a server, but it does not resolve DNS requests. The ping command can be used to test the connectivity and latency between two hosts, but it does not resolve DNS requests.

Citrix XML Service Trust is a security setting that determines whether StoreFront trusts communication from Delivery Controllers. Citrix documentation states that this trust must be enabled when authentication relies on credentials that must be securely forwarded or delegated through StoreFront and Delivery Controllers.

The authentication features that require XML Service Trust to be enabled are:

✔ A. Pass-through Authentication

This method allows the user’s Windows credentials to be automatically passed from the endpoint to StoreFront and then to Delivery Controllers.

This process requires StoreFront to trust the Delivery Controllers for credential delegation.

✔ D. Pass-through from NetScaler Gateway

When Gateway authenticates the user and passes credentials or tokens to StoreFront, StoreFront must trust the XML service on the Delivery Controllers to validate user identity securely.

✔ E. Smart Card Authentication

Smart card credentials contain certificate-based identities that StoreFront must securely trust and forward to the Delivery Controllers. This requires XML trust between components.

Why the other options are incorrect:

B. Smart AccessSmartAccess is a Citrix Gateway feature based on SmartControl policies and does not rely on XML service trust.

C. HTTP BasicThis uses direct credential submission; it does not require XML trust.

 The administrator should negate the expression of the Responder policy to avoid the HTTP callout recursion issue. According to the Citrix documentation, “If you configure an HTTP callout policy that is bound globally, you must ensure that the policy expression does not match the callout request. Otherwise, the callout request will trigger the policy, resulting in a callout recursion.” The expression in option B ensures that the policy does not match the callout request by adding the NOT operator at the end.

Option B is correct because spillover policies are applied on the GSLB virtual server level, not on the individual GSLB service level. Therefore, the user cannot have a backup for a subset of GSLB services1.

Option C is correct because the selection of a GSLB service is based on the load balancing method configured on the GSLB virtual server, which applies to all the GSLB services bound to it. The user cannot restrict the selection of a GSLB service from a subset of GSLB services for the given domain1.

Option A is incorrect because an administrator can define a backup for a backup Vserver in an active standby GSLB setup for a given GSLB domain by using the backup domain option2.

Option D is incorrect because a GSLB Vserver can load-balance multiple FQDNs by using the domain list option

Application Prelaunch is a feature that allows users to launch applications faster by creating a session when the user logs on to Citrix Workspace app, before the user requests an application. This feature is enabled by Delivery Group and can be configured for all users or a subset of users1.

Session Sharing is a feature that allows users to launch multiple applications using the same session, reducing the load on the server and improving the user experience. This feature is enabled by default and can be configured using Citrix policies2.
