Question #: 91
Topic #: 4

Scenario: A Citrix Engineer is maintaining a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops environment. The engineer recently deployed Citrix App Layering for improved image management with Machine Creation Services (MCS). The infrastructure requires various 32-bit and 64-bit operating system platforms.

Which three considerations does the engineer need to be aware of when creating various OS Layers for the company infrastructure? (Choose three.)

AApplication and Platform Layers are directly tied to the operating system layer on which they were created.

BThe ELM Repository storage maintains a maximum limit of 10 OS Layers that can be built and maintained on it at any given time.

CBefore an OS version or layer can be deleted from the Citrix App Layering Management console, it must first NOT be in use by an existing template.

DThe engineer needs a unique layer for each OS build created.

EThe engineer does NOT need to create a unique OS Layer for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the same OS type.

FWhen preparing the OS Layer, the engineer should NOT include any hypervisor tools or utilities within the OS Layer.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about E. Wouldn't you want a separate layer for 32-bit and 64-bit, just to be safe? Better to be thorough, you know?

Haha, 10 OS layers? What is this, the Stone Age? These days you need to be able to handle way more than that. I'm going with C and F.

I agree with Frederic. And option F is a good one too - you don't want any hypervisor-specific stuff in the OS layer, that could cause problems.

I believe option D is also important as each OS build needs a unique layer for better organization.

Option C is definitely the right answer. You can't delete an OS layer that's being used by a template - that's just common sense!

I think option A is important because the Application and Platform Layers need to match the OS layer.
