Question

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator made changes to a Citrix ADC, deleting parts of the configuration and saving some new ones. The changes caused an outage that needs to be resolved as quickly as possible. There is no Citrix ADC backup. What does the administrator need to do to recover the configuration quickly?

Options

  • ARestore from the revision history.
  • BRun high availability (HA) file synchronization.
  • CRestart the Citrix ADC.
  • DRun saved versus running configuration.

Explanation

Citrix ADC maintains a revision history of configuration changes, allowing administrators to roll back to a previous known-good state without needing an external backup - making it the fastest recovery path when a bad change causes an outage.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • B (HA file sync): HA sync propagates the current (broken) config from the primary to the secondary - it doesn't restore a previous state and would only spread the problem.
  • C (Restart): Restarting the ADC loads the saved config, but if the bad changes were saved (as the scenario states), the broken config persists after reboot.
  • D (Saved vs. running config): This comparison tool shows differences between the saved and running configs - useful for auditing, but it doesn't restore anything.

Memory tip: Think of revision history as Citrix ADC's built-in "undo" button - when there's no backup and the saved config is already corrupted, revision history is your only native rollback option.
