1Y0-204 CCA-V Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Administration exam Question and Answers

 According to the Citrix documentation, the -denySSLReneg parameter specifies the type of SSL renegotiation that the Citrix ADC denies. The possible options are:

NONSECURE: Deny renegotiation requests from a client if the initial handshake between the Citrix ADC and the client is not secure. A secure handshake is one in which both parties prove their identities to each other by presenting valid certificates.

FRONTEND_CLIENT: Deny renegotiation requests from a client on a front-end SSL connection, regardless of whether the initial handshake is secure or not. A front-end SSL connection is one in which the Citrix ADC communicates with the client over SSL.

ALL: Deny all renegotiation requests from a client on a front-end SSL connection and from a server on a back-end SSL connection. A back-end SSL connection is one in which the Citrix ADC communicates with the server over SSL.

NO: Allow all renegotiation requests.

Therefore, the correct answer is A and C.

According to the Create machine catalogs document from Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 2308, MCS adds the machines to Active Directory, which creates unique identities. MCS creates the number of VMs specified in the wizard, with two disks defined for each VM. In addition to the two disks per VM, a master is also stored in the same storage location. The identity disk is one of the two disks per VM, and it is used to store the Active Directory identity and other unique information for each VM. The identity disk is 16 MB in size and is created for each VM regardless of the disk type selected for the catalog.

 CDF Control is a tool that can be used to collect information to investigate issues with session performance. CDF Control allows the administrator to enable and disable tracing, collect trace logs, and analyze them using Citrix Scout or Citrix Insight Services

According to the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Deployment and Administration course, team members who have access to their own admin partitions do NOT have Shell access by design. Shell access is only available for the default partition. Therefore, the team member cannot use aaad.debug or any other Shell commands from the CLI1

The Control layer contains the Site database in a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Architecture model. The Site database stores the running site configuration, plus the current session state and connection information. The Access layer contains the components that users need to connect to their apps and desktops, such as StoreFront and Citrix Gateway. The User layer contains the user profiles, policies, and data. The Resource layer contains the machines that host the apps and desktops, such as VDAs and hypervisors

When Citrix Director is integrated with NetScaler Gateway using NetScaler Console / ADM, it unlocks HDX Insight data. This provides deep ICA and network analytics that Citrix Director cannot display alone.

The integration provides advanced metrics such as:

✔ A. Latency and bandwidth information for specific user sessions

HDX Insight allows administrators to see:

Session latency (ICA RTT, network latency)

Per-session bandwidth consumptionThis data is retrieved directly from NetScaler Gateway.

✔ C. Latency and bandwidth effects for applications and desktops

NetScaler ADM tracks ICA virtual channel usage at the application level, allowing Citrix Director to show:

Bandwidth impact of individual applications

Latency correlations with app responsiveness

✔ D. Average ICA round trip time for specific user sessions

This metric comes from the integrated ICA/HDX analytics and represents perceived responsiveness from the user’s point of view.

Why the other options are incorrect:

B. Peak concurrent sessions for apps/desktops:This is not provided by NetScaler integration; it is tracked by Delivery Controllers, not ADM.

E. Peak connected sessions for specific users:Director does not track historical peak sessions per user; this metric does not come from NetScaler.

According to the Citrix documentation1, the weight option assigns a numerical weight to a service. The higher the weight, the more requests the service can handle. By default, the weight is 1, which means equal distribution of requests. To make the new servers receive twice the connections of the old servers, the administrator needs to assign a weight of 2 to the services attached to the new servers.

To get application enumeration working in a Citrix Cloud migration scenario with on-premises StoreFront and Citrix ADC, the administrator needs to add the Citrix Cloud Connectors as Secure Ticket Authority (STA) servers on both Citrix ADC and StoreFront12.

The Group Policy Object administrative template, which includes the ADMX and ADML files, is recommended for configuring Citrix Workspace app settings at the domain level. This allows the settings to be applied across various user devices within the enterprise

The Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) is a software component that enables machines to deliver applications and desktops to users. The VDA registers with a Delivery Controller and communicates session information to the Controller, which brokers connections between users and their resources. Users access their resources through Citrix Workspace app or a compatible web browser1

When EDT is disabled, ICA fallback communication occurs over TCP rather than UDP.

Remote users connecting through NetScaler Gateway reach internal Citrix resources using ICA over SSL.

Citrix documentation specifies that NetScaler Gateway communicates with clients using:

TLS/SSL over port 443, regardless of whether EDT is enabled or not.

This port must be opened on the perimeter firewall to allow:

Secure ICA proxy traffic

Authentication traffic

Connection establishment

STA ticket validation via Gateway

Why the other options are incorrect:

1494 — Raw ICA (not used externally when Gateway is in front).

2598 — Session Reliability port; also not used by external clients connecting via Gateway.

80 — Unencrypted HTTP (never appropriate for secure remote access).

NetScaler Gateway always requires SSL 443 for secure ICA proxy connections.

The administrator needs to change the product edition in Citrix Studio to match the newly installed advanced licenses. This action ensures that the Citrix Virtual Desktops Site utilizes the correct licenses and resolves the issue with the evaluation license expiration error message.

According to the Citrix documentation1, when connection proxy is used as the site persistence method, the Subnet IP (SNIP) address of the appliance is used to source the traffic when the connection is proxied. This ensures that the response from the server goes back to the same appliance that proxied the request.

1: Connection Proxy

The issue is caused by the policy expression of the no_chunk_pol being ‘true’ and ‘NOT HTTP.REQ.IS_VALID’. This means that the policy will always be true and thus, always be invoked, preventing the other policy from being used. This is explained in the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Deployment and Administration (CWS-215) course, under the section “Load Balancing Virtual Server Rewrite Policy Binding”.

 Citrix Director is the tool designed for monitoring the overall daily performance of a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Site. It provides administrators with insights into the environment’s operations, allowing for proactive management and troubleshooting

Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops support several high availability solutions for on-premises deployments, including Always On Availability Groups, SQL Server database mirroring, and SQL clustering. These features ensure automatic failover and continuous operation1

Citrix HDX Insight (part of Citrix ADM / NetScaler MAS) provides deep ICA and HDX analytics, especially for users connecting through NetScaler Gateway. It is the only Citrix tool that delivers:

Per-user ICA round-trip time

Network latency and jitter

Throughput and bandwidth usage

Packet loss

Channel-level analytics (Thinwire, audio, printing, etc.)

Gateway-level connection health

Historical and real-time ICA flow data

This makes it the correct tool for troubleshooting ICA latency specifically for external users entering through NetScaler Gateway.

Why the other options are incorrect:

Citrix Diagnostic Toolkit (B): Contains utilities like CDFControl—useful for deep log capture, but not for network analytics.

Configuration Logging (C): Tracks administrative changes, not network performance.

Citrix Scout (D): Gathers system logs for support, not real-time or historical ICA network metrics.

Beginning with Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 2402 LTSR, Citrix introduced enhanced support for multiple policy sets assigned to a single Delivery Group. This improvement allows administrators to:

Combine multiple policy sets

Layer policy configurations

Apply different sets of rules to the same Delivery Group

Improve flexibility and reduce the need for large monolithic policy sets

Citrix documentation clarifies that Delivery Groups now support assignment of more than one policy set, and all applicable policies are processed according to their priorities.

Therefore, the correct answer is that a Delivery Group can use multiple policy sets simultaneously.

 According to the Policies page of Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 2308 documentation, Classic policies are a collection of settings that define how sessions, bandwidth, and security are managed for a group of users, devices, or connection types. You can apply policy settings to physical and virtual machines or to users. Classic policies can be filtered by various criteria, such as HTTP, IP, and TCP. These are the only options allowed when using Classic policies. Other options, such as CLIENT, SERVER, and DNS, are not valid filters for Classic policies.

 Folder redirection is a feature of Microsoft Windows and can be used with Profile Management. It allows folders, such as Application Data or Documents, to be saved (redirected) to a network location. The contents of the folders are stored in the redirected location and not included within the user profile, which therefore reduces in size. This can improve the logon times for users with large Documents folders1

1: Plan folder redirection with Profile Management

When adding a new Delivery Controller to an existing Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Site, the Controller must register itself and update configuration information stored in the Site database. Citrix documentation explains that specific SQL Server permissions are required for this operation.

To successfully add a Delivery Controller to an existing Site, the administrator performing the task must have:

securityadmin – Allows management of logins and permissions required so the Controller can create and configure its service accounts in the database.

db_owner – Ensures the Controller can modify schema objects, write necessary configuration data, and register itself correctly within the existing Site database.

These permissions are the minimum required for joining a Controller to a Site. Other permission combinations listed (such as dbcreator or db_datawriter) are used for different tasks, such as creating new databases or running maintenance, and are not sufficient for joining a Controller to an existing environment.

Site-level GPOs are processed first for a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Site, followed by domain-level GPOs, Citrix local-Site policies, and OU level GPOs. This is the policy processing order and precedence for Citrix policies, as described in the Work with policies article from the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 2308 documentation.

Citrix policies allow administrators to centrally manage session behavior, client-side functionality, and resource control across a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops deployment. Citrix documentation identifies the following components as manageable through Citrix policy settings:

✔ Citrix Workspace app (A)

Policies such as client drive mapping, clipboard redirection, client audio, USB device redirection, and session graphics settings directly affect Workspace app behavior. These are configured through Citrix policies and enforced on the client during ICA sessions.

✔ Citrix Profile Management (B)

Citrix Profile Management (UPM) is managed entirely through Citrix policies (either via Studio or GPO). These policies control profile streaming, folder redirection integration, exclusions, synchronization, and profile handling behavior.

✔ Delivery Controller (E)

Policies determine how sessions are brokered and how Delivery Controllers enforce settings such as session reliability, load management, visual experience, printing, and bandwidth control.

Why the other choices are incorrect:

StoreFront (C): StoreFront has its own dedicated management console and configuration files. It is not managed through Citrix policies.

Citrix License Server (D): Licensing is handled by the License Server console—not by Citrix policies.

Application Lingering allows applications to stay open for a configurable amount of time after a user closes them, which can reduce application launch times in subsequent sessions.

 According to the IBM documentation1, the Corrupt qualifier is used to modify the HTTP header of an HTTP request. The Corrupt qualifier changes the current value to a different value for a request or response header. If a value exists for the header, then this value is changed equivalent to a regular expression search and replace.

The Delivery Controller runs the Secure Ticket Authority (STA) and the Citrix XML Service, which are responsible for issuing session tickets in response to connection requests for published applications and desktops on Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops12. The Citrix Gateway can be configured to use the STA to validate the tickets and allow secure access to the resources3.

 In general, to improve HDX session performance for high-latency, low bandwidth connections, administrators can configure settings that reduce the amount of data transferred and the resources required. This includes optimizing the visual experience (B, D, E) by adjusting the frame rate, color depth, and video quality.

Pass-through from NetScaler Gateway is the authentication method that allows external users to access internal resources through StoreFront without having to enter their credentials again. This method requires that users authenticate on NetScaler Gateway, which then passes the user identity to StoreFront. This option is only available if it has been enabled for the store. See Pass-through from Citrix Gateway for more details.

The administrator received this error because they did not run the Add-PSSnapin Citrix* command before running the Get-BrokerSite PowerShell command. This is required to load the Citrix PowerShell snap-ins.

Citrix Profile Management includes two key filtering policies that determine which users CPM will apply to:

Processed Groups — Only users in these groups will have their profiles managed by CPM.

Excluded Groups — Users in these groups will never be processed by CPM, even if they appear in Processed Groups.

Citrix documentation states:

If Processed Groups is enabled, only the groups listed are processed.

If a user belongs to an Excluded Group, CPM is disabled for that user regardless of other group memberships.

Users not listed in either policy will not be processed by CPM when Processed Groups is enabled.

Given the policy configuration:

✔ Product Marketing Team (Processed Group)

Members are processed.

✔ Human Resources Team (Not listed anywhere)

Since Processed Groups is enabled, HR members are not processed.→ Matches Answer C

✔ IT Team (Excluded Group)

Explicitly excluded.→ Not processed.

✔ Professional Sales Team (Excluded Group)

Explicitly excluded.→ Matches Answer D

Other options incorrectly contradict Citrix Profile Management logic.

The Citrix Universal Generic Printer is a special type of auto-created printer that uses the Citrix Universal Print Driver and does not require any printer drivers to be installed on the server. It can reduce the number of native drivers being used within the Site infrastructure. To use this feature, the administrator must enable the Auto-create generic universal printer policy setting

Citrix Director can capture utilization statistics for CPU, IOPS, and memory for each machine in a selected delivery group1. The resource utilization tab in the trends page displays the historical data for these metrics, along with the peak concurrent sessions graph2. The machine statistics page also shows the CPU and memory usage of the selected machine over time, as well as the processes contributing to high resource consumption3. Citrix Director does not capture utilization statistics for disk space or network, but it does provide other information related to these components, such as disk latency4 and network analysis5.

In Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 2402 LTSR, the printing subsystem supports dynamic printer enumeration, which allows Citrix to automatically detect changes to client-side printers while an HDX session is running. This functionality is part of the Citrix Printing Virtual Channel.

When a user:

Adds a printer on their endpoint

Removes a printer on their endpoint

Citrix automatically updates the list of auto-created printers within the active session. The user does not need to log off, refresh, or perform any manual action. The VDA receives updated information from the Workspace app (or Receiver), and the in-session printer list adjusts accordingly.

Why the other choices are incorrect:

A: The session is affected; the printer list updates dynamically.

B: User intervention is not required.

D: Citrix does adjust the in-session printer list — dynamic support is built into the printing subsystem.

 To view license information in Studio, an administrator must have at least the Read Licensing delegated administration permission. The built-in Full Administrator and Read-Only Administrator roles have that permission1.

 The New-BrokerRebootScheduleV2 cmdlet creates a new reboot schedule for a machine catalog or a delivery group. The -StartTime parameter specifies the start time of the reboot schedule in 24-hour format. The -RebootDuration parameter specifies the time interval in minutes between each machine reboot. The -Frequency parameter specifies how often the reboot schedule occurs. The -DesktopGroupName parameter specifies the name of the delivery group to apply the reboot schedule to. The -Enabled parameter specifies whether the reboot schedule is enabled or not12

Citrix Profile Streaming is a feature that, when enabled, allows profile files and folders to be fetched from the user store to the local computer only when users access them after logon. Registry entries and files in the pending area are fetched immediately. By default, profile streaming is disabled23.

According to the Citrix documentation, “When you configure the Citrix ADC appliance for Active Directory authentication, you must configure DNS to assign fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) to the authentication and traffic management virtual servers. This is because the domain session cookie that is used during authentication is based on the FQDN of the virtual server.” 1

Application Probing is a monitoring feature in Citrix Director that automatically launches configured probes to test the availability and responsiveness of published applications.

Citrix added full support for application probing in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 2203 LTSR. Therefore:

2203 LTSR is the oldest LTSR that supports application probing

1912 LTSR and 7.15 LTSR → Do not support application probing

2402 LTSR → Supports probing, but it is newer, not the oldest

Thus, the earliest LTSR with application probe support is 2203 LTSR.

VDA registration can be configured using:

Group Policy Object (GPO): Policy-based configuration using LGPO or GPO.

Organizational Unit (OU) based Controller discovery: Legacy OU discovery method.

MCS-based PERSONALITY.INI: Using the personality.ini file for MCS-based deployments.

These methods ensure that the VDA has accurate and current Controller or Cloud Connector information as Controllers are added, moved, and removed in the site1.

According to the Citrix documentation1, the Least Response Time method uses the response time of the monitor probes to determine the best service. However, this method requires that a monitor is bound to each service and that the monitor response times are recorded. Therefore, the virtual server uses the Round Robin method until each bound service has been probed by the monitor at least once. This mode is called startup round robin mode2.

According to the Citrix documentation1, Citrix Workspace app for Windows supports both pass-through authentication and session pre-launch features, which are required by the management in this scenario. Pass-through authentication allows users to log on to the Citrix Workspace app without entering their credentials, and session pre-launch enables sessions to be started in the background before users request them. The other options do not support both of these features.

According to the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service documentation1, the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service allows administrators to manage on-premises resources from the cloud, while providing users with secure access to those resources from any device. The Citrix Gateway service2 provides secure remote access to the on-premises resources through the Citrix Cloud Connector. The Citrix Provisioning service3 enables administrators to stream a single desktop image to multiple virtual machines, reducing storage and maintenance costs.

The Help Desk Administrator role is suitable for managing user sessions and power-managing machines within the Delivery Group without the ability to create new objects23.

Citrix documentation explains that to secure traffic between internal components (StoreFront ↔ Delivery Controllers), the administrator should enable HTTPS communication using internal domain-issued SSL certificates.

Why Domain SSL Certificates are correct:

Domain-issued certificates are trusted automatically by all domain-joined machines.

They cost nothing because they are issued by the company’s internal Certificate Authority (CA).

They secure communication between:

StoreFront servers

Delivery Controllers

They protect internal usernames, passwords, STA tickets, and XML communication without requiring public certification.

Thus, deploying:

✔ A domain SSL certificate on StoreFront

✔ A domain SSL certificate on Delivery Controllers

provides full internal encryption at minimal cost and minimal administrative effort.

Why the other options are incorrect:

Third-party SSL certificates (A and B) cost money, require external verification, and provide no additional benefit for internal-only communication.

Citrix documentation recommends third-party certificates only when externally exposed components (e.g., Citrix Gateway) must be trusted on unmanaged devices.

The Citrix Application Delivery Management appliance, when used with Citrix Director, allows administrators to monitor various aspects of the infrastructure. It provides detailed insights into latency and bandwidth effects for specific user sessions ©, average ICA round trip time for specific user sessions (D), and peak concurrent total sessions for specific applications and desktops (E), enhancing the ability to manage and optimize the Citrix environment.

According to the Citrix Printing Quick Start Guide1, Citrix recommends that you disable Direct connections to print servers if your Worker VMs and print servers are not in the same LAN. This is because in this situation the print job sent direct to the print server is not compressed. When the print job is routed via ICA it is compressed. This setting can be configured via Citrix policy under Printing > Client Printers > Direct connections to print servers2. Disabling this setting will allow users to print to both print servers via the ICA protocol. The other options are not relevant to the issue or the scenario.

According to the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Deployment and Administration course description12, the course covers how to deploy and manage machines running the VDA in both on-premises datacenters and public clouds, such as AWS1. The Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service also supports Azure and Google Cloud Platform as resource locations for VDAs3. Citrix Cloud is not a resource location, but a platform that hosts the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service3. VMware Workspace One is not a supported resource location for VDAs, but a competing product from VMware.

 According to the Citrix documentation, the Citrix Cloud Connector is a Citrix component that serves as a channel for communication between Citrix Cloud and the resource locations, enabling cloud management without requiring any complex networking or infrastructure configuration. This removes all the hassle of managing delivery infrastructure. The Cloud Connector also provides services for the Citrix Cloud Delivery Controllers to configure the resource location where Citrix Provisioning runs. Therefore, the administrator needs to install Citrix Cloud Connectors on the Citrix Provisioning servers to migrate the Citrix Provisioning environment to Citrix Cloud1

Citrix Director includes application probing and health monitoring that categorizes issues into:

Warnings

Faults

Failures

According to Citrix’s monitoring definitions:

✔ An Application Fault refers to a failure that impacts functionality or causes loss of service or data.

Specifically, a fault indicates that the application:

Has experienced a significant failure

Cannot provide expected functionality

Has recorded an event indicating a serious problem

Needs administrative attention

This differs from:

Warnings (A) — non-critical issues that might lead to problems

Application unavailable (C) — a condition caused by machine/host failure

Probe failures (D) — failures detected through scheduled application probes and classified differently

Therefore, an Application Fault directly relates to loss of functionality or data, making B correct.

 Featured App Groups in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops can be created based on Application names, Keywords, and Application categories. This allows administrators to organize and highlight applications for users based on these criteria

Enabling NTUSER.DAT backup allows Profile Management to maintain a last known good backup of the NTUSER.DAT file and use it to recover the profile if corruption is detected. This can help prevent data loss from users’ profiles. According to the Registry policy settings document, “If you do not configure this policy here or in the.ini file, Profile Management does not back up NTUSER.DAT.” The other options are not relevant to preventing profile corruption or data loss.

Citrix Profile Streaming is a feature that, when enabled, allows profile files and folders to be fetched from the user store to the local computer only when users access them after logon. Registry entries and files in the pending area are fetched immediately. By default, profile streaming is disabled23.

 The Citrix Universal Print Server provides universal printing support for network printers. The Universal Print Server uses the Universal print driver, a single driver on the Multi-session OS machine that allows local or network printing from any device, including thin clients and tablets. This feature can help reduce the number of Windows drivers on the VDA machines by using a single driver for all network printers

 According to the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Deployment and Administration (CWS-215) course, the Citrix ADC can optimize the responses by using HTTP protocol for the services and SSL protocol for the virtual server. This configuration allows the Citrix ADC to terminate the SSL connection from the client and then communicate with the server using HTTP. This way, the data is encrypted between the client and the Citrix ADC, and the Citrix ADC can perform optimization tasks such as compression and caching1: Page 95, Module 5: Citrix Gateway and Citrix StoreFront Integration.
