  • D. The license server will enter a 90-day grace period in which all user connections will work.

Suggested Answer: Answer: There is another ג€graceג€ period which kicks in once a license Server has been configured and a license detected which is not the same than the trial 🗳️
Impact of Citrix License Server Becoming Unavailable
Need to understand the impact of the Citrix license server that holds the XenMobile licenses becoming unavailable. That is how will XM respond if the configured license server cannot be contacted for an extended period of time.
ג€grace periodג€ which the document is referring. We keep a timestamp either on the local server or the common database when the license Service has been last available and if it becomes offline for some reason the clock starts ticking for 720 hours and this timer will reset if the license server becomes online again. So this is what would happen if the license server goes offline for some reason we would have 720 hours for amending the issue before the devices lose connectivity to the MDM server or XMS and once solved the problem the time would reset.

I'm guessing this isn't a real question and the wording here is slightly inaccurate. I'd lean towards B. Obviously, it isn't the license server that goes into grace, but resources should still be available. Citrix say "The 30-day grace period prevents you from experiencing degradation in performance and denial of service to users."

It's actually C because the license server has a valid license. Therefore, it will not enter a grace period. Since users will not be able to check out a license from the license server, users will be given a 30 day grace period.

Confirm it should be the B as a Correct answer : The grace period is set by Citrix. It is typically 30 days but can vary depending upon the product. The Windows Event Log, and other in product messages, indicate if the product has entered the grace period, the number of hours remaining in the grace period. Module
