Question #: 83
Topic #: 11

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator has a configured a Citrix policy using Citrix Studio. However, when the administrator restarted a Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) machine and launched an HDX session hosted on that machine, the policy settings were NOT being applied.

Which three statements are possible reasons for this behavior? (Choose three.)

AThe VDA machine is NOT registered with the Site where the Citrix policy was configured.

BThe policy settings were overridden by the default settings in the Unfiltered policy.

CA policy filter has been applied that excludes the VDA machine that was tested.

DThe VDA machine is NOT able to communicate with the Site database.

EConflicting Citrix policy settings have been configured using a Microsoft Group Policy Object (GPO).

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A, B, D

Option A is correct because if the VDA machine is not registered with the Site where the Citrix policy was configured, it will not receive the policy settings from the Site database.The VDA machine must register with a Delivery Controller in the Site to apply the Citrix policies1

Option B is correct because the Unfiltered policy is applied to all objects in the Site by default, and it has the lowest priority. If the Unfiltered policy contains settings that conflict with the Citrix policy configured by the administrator, the Unfiltered policy settings will override the administrator's policy settings.The administrator can either disable the Unfiltered policy or change its priority to avoid this issue2

Option D is correct because if the VDA machine is not able to communicate with the Site database, it will not be able to retrieve the latest Citrix policy settings from the database.The VDA machine relies on the Delivery Controller to communicate with the Site database and apply the Citrix policies3

Ooh, I bet it's those sneaky conflicting Citrix policy settings from a Microsoft GPO. Those always seem to come back and haunt you!

User 3: I think it might be the conflicting Citrix policy settings from the Microsoft GPO. Those can cause issues.

User 2: Yeah, that could be one reason. Or maybe a policy filter was applied that excludes the VDA machine.

Maybe the VDA machine isn't registered with the Site.

I think option D might also be a reason. If the VDA machine can't communicate with the Site database, then the policy settings won't be enforced.

Haha, I bet the Citrix administrator has been configuring policy settings using a magic 8-ball or something. Talk about a head-scratcher!

I agree with Wilda. Option C could also be a possible reason. If a policy filter excludes the VDA machine, then the settings won't be applied.

Wait, wait, wait - what if the VDA machine is not able to communicate with the Site database? That could be a real problem!

It's also possible that the VDA machine is not able to communicate with the Site database.

It could be because the VDA machine is not registered with the Site.

I think option A could be a reason. The VDA machine needs to be registered with the Site for the policy to apply.

The VDA machine is definitely not registered with the Site where the Citrix policy was configured. That's gotta be the issue here.

Hmm, I think the policy settings were overridden by the default settings in the Unfiltered policy. That seems like the most likely reason to me.
