Which SQL Server high availability option is supported for Citrix databases and provides automatic failover at the instance level using shared storage?

Failover Cluster Instance (FCI)

A company has two StoreFront servers in a single location. They want to ensure that if one server fails, users can still authenticate and access their apps. They also want to avoid users having to manually select a different server. Which two actions should they take together to meet this requirement?

Join both servers to the same server group and set the load balancer to use source-IP affinity with a long persistence timeout.

Install both servers in a failover cluster and configure the StoreFront service as a clustered generic service.

Create a StoreFront server group with both servers, and place a load balancer in front of them.

Configure one server as the primary and the other as a warm standby, updating it manually with configuration exports.

An administrator has two StoreFront servers in a server group. They notice that when one server is taken offline for maintenance, users who were connected to that server lose access to their applications and must log in again. What is the most likely cause of this behavior?

The StoreFront server group is not synchronized.

The Citrix Gateway is not configured to pass authentication to the remaining server.

The load balancer is not configured to persist sessions or the session state is not shared.

The Delivery Controllers are not load balanced.

A company is designing a high-availability architecture for its Citrix environment. They want to ensure that no single component failure causes a complete outage. Which principle should they apply?

Deploy at least two of each critical component and use load balancing to distribute traffic.

Deploy a single, powerful server for each role to minimize the number of components.

Configure all components to use the same network path to reduce complexity.

Use a single SQL database for all sites to simplify management.

In a Citrix Gateway high availability deployment, what is the characteristic of an active-passive configuration?

Traffic is distributed based on the source IP address of the client.

Both appliances actively handle traffic simultaneously.

One appliance handles traffic while the other remains on standby and takes over on failure.

Each appliance is configured with a different set of virtual servers.
