Scenario: A Citrix Architect is designing a new Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. The architect has identified the Resource Layer requirements shown in the exhibit.

Which feature of Citrix Profile Management could help the architect address the Graphic Designers Group requirements?
To address the requirements for the Graphic Designers Group, the feature of Citrix Profile Management that can help is Active Write Back. This feature ensures that changes to the user profile are synchronized in real-time, making them immediately available across multiple sessions. This is critical in environments where users might access their profiles from different sessions simultaneously, as it guarantees that any modifications made in one session will be reflected in the others. The requirement to 'Synchronize profile files in multiple sessions' can be effectively met with Active Write Back, which continuously writes back user profile changes to the central profile store.
Mutiple-sessions == Active Write Back
A. Active write back
It cannot be answer A, Active write back is not recommended and should be disabled in non-persistent environments. I think Profile caching is then the best option, not ideal but if I have to choose, I think D is the best answer.
https://www.citrix.com/blogs/2012/11/30/to-cache-or-not-to-cache-that-is-the-question/ If the machine is not volatile, disable Active Write Back. Volatile = Non-persistent. therefore should be disabled in non non-persistent environments. i.e. persistent. This along with multiple sessions requiring sync, I go for A.
Active Write Back does seem to satisfy "Synchronize profile files in multiple session", even without the option "multi-session write back for profile containers". https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/profile-management/current-release/configure/active-write-back.html If you start a second session (at a second computer, for example), modifications made to a file in the first session are available in the second if it was started before you log off from the first.
Hint is "Synchronize profile files in multiple sessions", see this: https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/profile-management/current-release/configure/active-write-back.html
Is the answer not to enable "multi-session write back for profile containers"? - Not one of the options here https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/profile-management/current-release/configure/enable-multi-session-write-back-for-profile-containers.html
