Actual exam question from Citrix's 1Y0-403
Question #: 15
Topic #: 1
[All 1Y0-403 Questions]

Scenario: A large retail environment includes a StoreFront server group with 2 servers, each with 2 vCPUs and 4 GB of RAM. The server group handles about
25,000 user connections per hour, with the majority of users accessing the environment using the Citrix Workspace app. Workspace Control has been disabled for the environment.
A Citrix Architect learns that the company will soon merge with another retail chain. The Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment must double its capacity, and the StoreFront server group is expected to handle about 40,000 user connections per hour.
What should the architect do to meet the expected load while maintaining high availability with optimal resource allocation for the StoreFront component?

  • A. Allocate an additional 2 vCPUs to each existing StoreFront server.
  • B. Enable Workspace Control for all StoreFront stores.
  • C. Allocate an additional 2 GB of RAM to each existing StoreFront server.
  • D. Train users to begin accessing the environment using Citrix Workspace app for Web site.
  • E. Use the least connection method for load-balancing on Citrix ADC.

Selected Answer: A
A. Allocate an additional 2 vCPUs to each existing StoreFront server is correct as for SF scale most sence CPU scaling has to be applied [if we scale for a load, not HA or internal enterprize needs]

The throughput of a single StoreFront server can also be increased by assigning more virtual CPUs to the system, with four virtual CPUs enabling up to 55,000 user connections per hour and eight virtual CPUs enabling 80,000 connections per hour. Adding 2 additional vCPU will increase each storefront server to 55,000 user connections. If one server fails, still the required 40.000 user connections can be served. Answer A is correct.

Storefront: 2 cpu/4gb can support up to 30.000 connections per hout 4 cpu/4gb can support up to 55.000 connections per hour. Add 2 CPU: 2x 4 cpu/4gb Total of 110.000 connections per hour. HA, when 1 node fail: 55.000 connections per hour Add server: 3x 2 cpu/4gb Total of 90.000 connections per hour. HA, when 1 node fail: 60.000 connections per hour Citrix advise to Scale up and not to scale out for Storefront deployments, so answer B will be correct.

SFs scaling is all about adding CPUs, Not servers, not RAM.
