10/05/2022, 3:57 PMDo you want profiles for all users to exist in both locations? The replicate profile store info Steven linked above may work, but it does add time to logoff writing to the remote location.

10/05/2022, 9:36 PMwhen using the replicate profile, does UPM automatically pick up from this list the next path if the first one is not available? Thanks!

10/06/2022, 1:10 PMare the datacenters close? like would one datacenter be considered an extension of the first datacenter?
n
newbie1998
10/06/2022, 2:14 PMthey are close. I was to configure one site and have it span the two data center. Latency between the two site is 4 ms. They have a 10 GB network connection.
newbie1998
10/06/2022, 2:14 PMi plan on using fslogix for them.

10/06/2022, 2:21 PMtotally get the consolidation effort, makes sense. how are the other apps configured? Only out of 1 datacenter? or AppA is in datacenter1 and AppB is in datacenter2? Do the other teams use 1 datacenter as more of a passive/DR datacenter? If so, i'd follow suit.
Steve Noel
10/06/2022, 2:27 PMi've seen a very similar case where 2 datacenters were so close. Everyone called it Datacenter 2, however, it really just became an extension of Datacenter 1. Single points of failure everywhere, on both sides. Just trying to have you avoid that or at least set the expectations for the manager/execs. If datacenter # goes down, what doesn't work?
n
newbie1998
10/06/2022, 2:39 PMthanks steve. So both data centers will be mirrors of each other. The same apps will be installed in datacenter 1 and 2. so if datacenter 1 goes down users can use the apps in datacenter 2.
newbie1998
10/06/2022, 2:43 PMthere use to be documentation for on creating one site spanning multiple datacenter that would list the requirements, but i can't find that now...do any of you have a link? i need it for my RA doc and plus i want to review.

10/10/2022, 8:13 PMHey guys
newbie1998

10/10/2022, 9:13 PMnot sure if anyone else has hard 'citrix site' latency and bandwidth requirements, let me know if you find something there.
Steve Noel
10/10/2022, 9:14 PMmost of the recommendation around best practice would be sep citrix sites per datacenter. Again, just guidance.
Steve Noel
10/10/2022, 9:14 PMit's a very complicated answer with tons of customer variables
Steve Noel
10/10/2022, 9:16 PMmaybe a good time to entertain citrix cloud too.

10/11/2022, 1:59 PMi reached out to citrix, and awaiting feedback
newbie1998
10/11/2022, 1:59 PMi just need like clear documentation as to why a seperate site should be created.
newbie1998
10/11/2022, 2:00 PMi found this...

10/11/2022, 2:01 PMBasically if you span to a citrix site to a secondary site you can't claim it as being as a DR site
newbie1998
10/11/2022, 2:01 PMyou would need to create a seperate site as DR, technically
s
Steve Noel
10/11/2022, 2:05 PMare you stretching the SQL cluster too?
j
jvitech
10/11/2022, 2:34 PMwhen you use zones you can make it resilient. I did many DR testing in lab and it works.
n
newbie1998
10/11/2022, 3:29 PMyes, we stretching the SQL cluster too
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 2:52 PMhey guys
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 2:52 PMcitrix came back with saying that the site can be stretched even though the two data centers are 150 miles a part.
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 2:53 PMthey said they don't have any updated documentation on those recommendations but will update what they have
s
Steve Noel
10/18/2022, 2:55 PMit's not miles, it's latency and bandwidth.
Steve Noel
10/18/2022, 2:55 PMand when they say stretched are they talking about zones?
n
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 3:40 PMthere use to be guidelines for distance as well.
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 3:40 PMs
Steve Noel
10/18/2022, 3:41 PMhopefully you can get them to publish a new article...
n
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 3:44 PMi hope so...its worked before. i had them update guidelines on a few things.
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 3:44 PM....in the past
newbie1998
10/18/2022, 3:44 PMlike the sql scripts to re-point the DDC to a new sql cluster
