Why each option

To ensure high availability in a global XenDesktop deployment, the architect should recommend installing two Delivery Controllers in each datacenter.

AInstall two controllers in each datacenter.Correct

Installing a minimum of two Delivery Controllers in every datacenter is a fundamental best practice for achieving local high availability. This redundancy ensures that if one controller fails within a specific datacenter, the other controller can seamlessly take over its functions, maintaining continuous service for users.

BInstall three controllers in New York and three in London.

While deploying three controllers offers N+1 redundancy and increased capacity, two controllers per datacenter is the standard minimum recommendation for high availability, and the specific locations are not a general rule for 'each datacenter'.

CInstall three controllers in Hong Kong and three in New York.

Three controllers in specific locations (Hong Kong and New York) are not the general best practice for providing high availability in 'each datacenter' and may exceed the minimum requirement.

DInstall three controllers in New York and three in Oslo.

Deploying three controllers might be for capacity beyond just HA, and the specific locations like Oslo are not a general best practice for 'each datacenter' in a global context.
