Configure ICA session limits in the server farm
In the server properties, configure ‘Fair sharing of CPU between sessions’
Start the CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer Service on the server

Answer: c.

Explanation: To resolve poor application performance on a single-CPU XenApp Server which is hosting CPU-intensive applications, using the Access Management Console, configure ‘Fair sharing of CPU between sessions’ for a server in CPU Utilization Management. The CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer Service only starts on servers with multiple processors. ICA session limits would be configured to manage the number of ICA sessions allowed per user.

______________________________________________________________

What service is only available on servers with multiple processors?

IMA Service
Citrix CPU Utilization Management/User-Session Synchronization
Citrix CPU Utilization Management/Resource Mgmt
Citrix CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer

Answer: d.

Explanation: The Citrix CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer Service is only available on servers with multiple processors.

______________________________________________________________

The CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer Service should only be run when all CPU intensive applications:

appear to be running on the same CPU
appear to be running on multiple processors
are running in one session
are running in multiple sessions
Answer: a.

Explanation: The CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer Service is responsible for enhancing resource management on servers with multiple CPUs and should only be run when all CPU intensive applications appear to be running on the same CPU.

______________________________________________________________

A new CPU-intensive application has been added to the XenApp Server farm. Soon after adding the new application, users start voicing their concern over long logon times. Which of the following should the administrator do to resolve the issue?

Configure ICA session limits in the server farm
In the farm properties, configure ‘Fair sharing of CPU between sessions’
Assign the Advanced Load Evaluator to the application
Disable the CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer Service on the server

Answer: b.

Explanation: To resolve slow logon times when a CPU-intensive application is the cause, using the Access Management Console, configure ‘Fair sharing of CPU between sessions’ for the farm in CPU Utilization Management. The CPU Utilization Management/CPU Rebalancer Service is responsible for enhancing resource management on servers with multiple CPUs and should only be run when all CPU intensive applications appear to be running on the same CPU and disabling it would not solve anything. ICA session limits would be configured to manage the number of ICA sessions allowed per user. Load evaluators would be a factor if it was a load issue, but it’s a CPU/application issue.

______________________________________________________________

User A is running multiple CPU intensive applications on a XenApp Server. User B is running one CPU intensive application on the same server. User B is noticing application poor application performance while User A is not noticing any degradation in application performance. Which of the following should the administrator implement to solve this issue?

Workspace Control
Preferential Load Balancing
CPU Utilization Management
Keep Alive

Answer: c.

Explanation: When multiple sessions are running on a server, the performance of some sessions can be impacted when one or more sessions dominate the CPU time on the server.

Which feature of XenApp allows a user to open an application on one workstation and, without closing the application, move to another workstation and connect to the application in the same session instead of opening a new session?

How To Monitor Farm Health Using Medevac All About Citrix Workspace

Workspace Control
Keep-Alive
Session Reliability
Auto Client Reconnect

Answer: a.

Explanation: Workspace Control allows users to connect to applications being delivered to the user on a different client device using the same session. Keep-Alive tracks the amount of time since the last time a server had contact with a plugin, sends a packet to the plugin and disconnects the session if the plugin doesn’t respond within a certain time limit or number of tries. Session Reliability keeps the session displayed on the user’s screen during connection interruption and displays a spinning hour glass until connectivity is resumed. Auto Client Reconnect detects a broken connection and attempts to reconnect the user to the disconnected session until there is a successful reconnection or the user cancels the reconnection attempts.
