1Y0-201 Question #144: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

The correct answer is C: Standard. In Citrix Provisioning Services, a vDisk must be placed in Standard Image mode to allow multiple target devices to simultaneously boot from a single read-only copy of the disk.

Question

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator is modifying a vDisk. The administrator finishes making changes to the vDisk and promotes it to production. Now, only one machine is working with the new vDisk. In which access mode should the administrator put the vDisk so that multiple target devices can boot from this vDisk?

Options

ATest
BPrivate
CStandard
DProduction
EMaintenance

Explanation

In Citrix Provisioning Services, a vDisk must be placed in Standard Image mode to allow multiple target devices to simultaneously boot from a single read-only copy of the disk.

Common mistakes.

A. Test mode is a vDisk status designator used for validating changes before full production release, and does not itself enable multi-device streaming.
B. Private Image mode gives a single target device exclusive read-write access to the vDisk, which is the reason only one machine is currently working - this mode must be changed.
D. Production is a vDisk status or version property indicating the vDisk is approved for end-user use, but it does not define the access mode that governs how many devices can simultaneously boot from it.
E. Maintenance mode is used when an administrator needs to make changes to the vDisk and grants exclusive write access to a single maintenance device, preventing other devices from booting it.

Concept tested. Citrix PVS vDisk Standard Image mode for multi-device streaming
