Question 10

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator configured Citrix ADC load balancing to send requests to one of three identical backend servers. Each server handles multiple protocols, and load balancing is set up in round-robin mode. The current load-balancing setup on the Citrix ADC is:

One load-balancing virtual server with one externally accessible VIP

One service created for each protocol type

One server entity for each backend resource

During business hours, the administrator wants to make changes to one backend server without affecting the other servers

What is the most efficient way for the administrator to ensure that all traffic is routed away from the server without impeding responses from other resources?

    Correct Answer: C

    To ensure that all traffic is routed away from a specific backend server without affecting the other servers during business hours, the Citrix Administrator should disable the backend service entity targeted for change. This action will mark the service as down, thus preventing new connections to that server while allowing existing connections to continue to be served by the other servers in the pool.

A_atef92Option: C

The correct answer is C. To ensure that all traffic is routed away from a specific backend server without affecting the other servers, the Citrix Administrator can disable the backend service entity targeted for change. This will mark the service as down and ensure that no new connections are made to that server. Existing connections will continue to be served by the other servers in the pool.

sailorsoulOption: A

Why not just disable the server?

3a0f5fbOption: C

The correct answer is C: To ensure that all traffic is routed away from a specific backend server during business hours without affecting other servers, the Citrix Administrator can use the following approach: 1. Disable the Service for the Target Server 2. Cache Redirection (Optional) 3. Monitor the Backend Server

RDIOOption: A

From these options I think A. The D option "Unbind the correct server entity from the load-balancing virtual server." is wrong. You can't unbind directly a server from the LB vServer. From the vserver you can bind or unbind services or services groups.

Depi1Option: A

It's suppose to be A. You can't bind server entity directly to load-balancer vserver. Only Service or Service group entity can be bound with LB.

Joe_millerOption: A

I pick A and here is why. Yes, you can disable the Service, but if you use service groups from what I see you have to disable the whole group. But if you go into the Service group, then you have the option to disable the Server. Which then takes one out of the emix.

BenDParkerOption: A

I also agree with A

rgb511Option: D

for C, is it referring to the service within the backed server? if that's the case then D seems the best answer.
