Citrix Architecting a Citrix Virtualization Solution Sample Questions:

1. How should local profiles be implemented?

A) Within the appropriate Active Directory OU, a profile named NTUSER.DAT should be designated as a GPO setting.
B) Within the appropriate Active Directory OU, a profile named NTUSER.MAN should be designated as a GPO setting.
C) Within the Active Directory user account, a profile named NTUSER.MAN should be designated.
D) Within the Active Directory user account, a profile named NTUSER.DAT should be designated.

2. Finance and Human Resources are two user groups that are likely to be given virtual desktops in the long term phase.
Which type of virtual desktop should an architect give these user groups?

A) These user groups should use private mode assigned vDisks to ensure required security of confidential data.
B) There should be two pooled desktop groups, one for Finance and one for HR. This allows for differentadvanced desktop group settings to respond to the heavy logon/logoff behavior of the HR user group and for flexible configuration for remote access needs. They should both use the same standard mode vDisk.
C) All desktops for Finance and HR should be in a single pooled desktop group sharing one standard mode vDisk.
D) There should be two pooled desktop groups, onefor Finance and one for HR. There should be two unique standard mode vDisks, one designed for Finance and one designed for HR.

3. Why is this the best design for the desktops for these user groups?

A) This design meets all security requirements and also allow for easy administrative maintenance and updates of the vDisk because it is the only image and contains everything.
B) This design meets the high security printing requirements by limiting the ability to print from the applications only when accessing the vDisk.
C) This design meets the security needs and will provide a consistent user experience because applications are installed locally. Since the user groups are small, the administrative tasks will be minimal.
D) This design provides the most security by limiting access to the sensitive applications from the virtual desktop only and by deleting the user changes in the write cache at each reboot.

4. Why is placing the write cache on the target device hard drive as shared storage the best solution?

A) This storage is assigned to each virtual machine from optimized storage. Although it is not as fastas RAM or target device local storage, it still provides a fast response time and reduces the load on the Provisioning Server without being limited by RAM.
B) This solution will simplify the planning phase because it does not require identification of theshared storage size and utilizes the existing storage infrastructure.
C) This solution does not require the setup and configuration of a shared storage solution since XenServer is already being utilized and the same HP SAN can be used for the write cachestorage.
D) The costs associated with over-estimating the write cache size are not nearly as detrimental as over-estimating with RAM.

5. Why is using standard image streamed to virtual machines that are on XenServer the best option?

A) Decreases server boot time, less storage requirement, and is easier to configure.
B) Results in better user experience, simplified administration, and reduced overall complexity.
C) Optimizes XenServer to run the XenApp workload and eliminates need for additional component requirements.
D) Reduces number of physical servers needed, enhances business continuity and eases change management.
