Citrix Exam 1Y0-241 Topic 8 Question 80 Discussion

Actual exam question for Citrix's 1Y0-241 exam

Question #: 80
Topic #: 8

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator is configuring a Citrix ADC high availability (HA) pair with an existing primary Citrix ADC with all resources configured. The administrator adds the secondary Citrix ADC in HA and discovers that the configuration on the existing primary was removed and is now the secondary Citrix ADC in the HA pair.

Which two configurations could the administrator have used to prevent this from happening? (Choose two.)

ASet the primary Citrix ADC to stay primary in the Configure HA Node settings.

BSet the secondary Citrix ADC to stay secondary in the Configure HA Node settings.

CEnable HA monitoring on all secondary device interfaces.

DEnable HA monitoring on all primary device interfaces.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, C

Forcing the node to stay secondary works on both standalone and secondary nodes. On a standalone node, you must use this option before you can add a node to create an HA pair. When you add the new node, the existing node stops processing traffic and becomes the secondary node. The new node becomes the primary node.

On a standalone node, you must use this option before you can add a node to create an HA pair. When you add the new node, the existing node continues to function as the primary node, and the new node becomes the secondary node.

You know, I heard Citrix ADCs have a secret button that makes them swap places just for fun. Gotta watch out for that one!

This is why I always have a backup plan, even for my backup plan. Can't be too careful with these Citrix shenanigans.

Options B and C seem like a good idea, but I'm more of a fan of redundancy. Gotta have that HA monitoring on both primary and secondary interfaces.

Wait, so the primary ADC became the secondary? That's like a plot twist in a Citrix TV show!
