1Y0-312 Exam - Question 2


Scenario: A Citrix Engineer is managing a large environment with multiple locations. The setup is as follows:

- The setup has a single Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops site with multiple zones such as a Primary zone and 3 Satellite zones.

-Virtual Delivery Agents (VDAs) are available for all applications in all 3 Satellite zones.

-An application 'app1' has its application database located in Satellite zone.

-As a sovereign mandate, it is desirable that this application database should NOT be accessible from zones 2 and 3.

-The application does NOT create any database cache and cannot work if the database is NOT reachable. -The outage is acceptable for complying with the sovereign mandate.

Which zone preference should the engineer configure to achieve this setup?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: A

To ensure that the application database located in Satellite zone 1 is not accessible from zones 2 and 3, and given that the application cannot function if the database is not reachable, the correct setting is to configure a mandatory application home to Satellite zone 1. This configuration ensures that the application is only launched in Satellite zone 1 and will prevent any failover to other zones, complying with the sovereign mandate and preventing database access from other zones.

Don't you think it should be A - Mandatory application home to Satellite Zone 1? Mandatory application home zone use: Similarly, when you configure a home zone for an application, you can indicate that the application should be launched only in that zone, with no failover to a different zone if resources are not available in the application’s home zone.

A is correct - from training: "A mandatory application home will prevent a session from being launched in an alternate zone if an applications home zone is not available". And they say: "outage is acceptable to comply sovereign mandate" that is: "a DB should NOT be accessible from other zones"

D should be correct Look for "application home" in https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-15-ltsr/manage-deployment/zones.html#zone-preference

You guys are right, it better to be A. "Mandatory application home zone use: Similarly, when you configure a home zone for an application, you can specify “launch the application only in that zone, with no failover to a different zone if resources are not available in the application’s home zone.”"

Is it D because - The application does NOT create any database cache and cannot work if the database is NOT reachable. -The outage is acceptable for complying with the sovereign mandate?

Answer: A. Mandatory application home to Satellite zone 1 Reasoning: Configuring 'app1' as mandatory application home to Satellite zone 1 ensures that the application and its resources, including the database, will always operate within Satellite zone 1. This setup aligns with the sovereign mandate that restricts database access from zones 2 and 3, even if Virtual Delivery Agents (VDAs) are available in those zones.
