Question - In the techzone documentation for LHC (https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/tech-zone/learn/tech-briefs/local-host-cache-ha-daas.html) It mentions in a quite handy graphic with timeframes for each stage of HA that "Pending HA" has a Minimum duration: 60 seconds. Does anyone know if that value can be modified? It doesn't say in the document or any other document I've seen.

It can be but believe it is a support case and discussion so you understand the impact. Are you wanting to make it longer or shorter?
c
I wouldn't personally change it. If your internet connection to Citrix cloud is flapping and you are constantly transitioning in/out of LHC mode you are best to set outage mode forced to 1 until the internet connection is stable

Many years back, when they first added LHC to 7.x, i tried out the related reg key to improve LHC invocation time, however, it created more issues than it solved. Looks like they now have a means to do it with Powershell, which is nice. https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-virtual-apps-desktops/manage-deployment/local-host-cache.html#:~:text=To%20force%20an%20outage%2C%20edit,the%20state%20of%20the%20database.

I was interested in making it a little longer, most likely in smaller increments, until I found the sweet spot. Networking team has an automated process in place to failover to a backup circuit if our primary circuit fails. When this usually happens, its taking longer than 60 seconds for the CCs to realize and results in a 15 minute HA penalty that we have to wait out. If 65 seconds is enough time to realize that things are connected properly without going into HA, that would be awesome.

ah, ok, in that case, maybe look at the related PS commands in the article I linked?

Yeah was just looking at that. Is that just in CR? I switched to an LTSR and the commands aren't there. Actually assuming that I run that on the cloud connectors, are cloud connectors current release (sorry still a little early).

I'm not sure, it's new for me as well

After actually R'ingTFM and not SkimmingTFM, I see its imported from C:\Program Files\Citrix\Broker\Service\ControlScripts. File to import is HighAvailabilityServiceControl.psm1. The one on our CC is dated 2/1/24

I skimmed turbo styles too 😂
