Actual exam question from Citrix's 1Y0-402

Question #: 40
Topic #: 1

Scenario: A large retail environment includes a StoreFront server group with two servers, each with 2 vCPUs and 4 GB of RAM. The server group handles about
25,000 user connections per hour, with a majority of the users accessing the environment using native Receiver. Workspace Control has been disabled for the environment.
A Citrix Architect learns that the company will soon merge with another retail chain. The XenApp and XenDesktop environment must double its capacity, and the
StoreFront server group is expected to handle about 40,000 user connections per hour.
What should the architect do to meet the expected load while maintaining high availability with optimal resource allocation for the StoreFront component?

A. Add a third StoreFront server with 2 vCPUs and 4 GB of RAM.
B. Allocate an additional 2 vCPUs to each existing StoreFront server.
C. Train users to begin accessing the environment using Receiver for Web.
D. Allocate an additional 2 GB of RAM to each existing StoreFront server.
E. Enable Workspace Control for all StoreFront stores.

Storefront: 2 cpu/4gb can support up to 30.000 connections per hout 4 cpu/4gb can support up to 55.000 connections per hour. Add 2 CPU: 2x 4 cpu/4gb Total of 110.000 connections per hour. HA, when 1 node fail: 55.000 connections per hour Add server: 3x 2 cpu/4gb Total of 90.000 connections per hour. HA, when 1 node fail: 60.000 connections per hour Citrix advise to Scale up and not to scale out for Storefront deployments, so answer B will be correct.

Storefront scalability is all about CPU focused, and never really about RAM.

The server group handles 25000 with a current spec of 2 vCPU 4GB RAM would equate to 12500 per server. Adding a 3rd server of the same spec would only give a total of 37500 connections per hour. Are we saying the 2 vCPU and 4GB RAM would allow more than 12500 connections per hour, totalling all three SF servers allowing a considerable amount more, or minimising the additional resources to add just add 2 additional vCPU’s to the current server group would suffice. I personally would say B.
