Domain overview
This domain covers moving an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops site to Citrix DaaS, including Cloud Connector architecture, resource locations, and Machine Catalog preparation. Questions test why outbound-only connectivity matters, why connectors deserve dedicated infrastructure, and which tooling readies existing catalogs for Citrix Cloud management.
Exam objectives
Cloud Connector outbound-only communication eliminating inbound firewall rules and DMZ exposure
Separate dedicated resource locations for Cloud Connectors versus co-locating on existing VDA or Delivery Controller hosts
Preparing existing on-premises Machine Catalogs for management through the Citrix Cloud control plane
Selecting the correct Citrix tooling to ready on-premises catalogs for Citrix DaaS management
Assuming Cloud Connectors require inbound firewall openings or a DMZ; they initiate outbound-only connections to Citrix Cloud, so inbound rules are unnecessary.
Co-locating Cloud Connectors on existing Delivery Controllers or VDAs instead of dedicated hosts, creating upgrade, scaling, and isolation problems.
Believing existing on-premises Machine Catalogs automatically appear in Citrix Cloud without preparing them with the proper migration tooling.

An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops site to Citrix Cloud using the Citrix Cloud Migration Service. Which component must be installed in the on-premises resource location to facilitate secure communication between the Citrix Cloud control plane and the local hypervisor?
2An administrator is migrating to Citrix Cloud and intends to use Azure Files for profile management. Which protocol must be supported and enabled in the Azure storage account to allow FSLogix to store profile containers effectively?
3When migrating to Citrix Cloud, why is it recommended to use a separate dedicated resource location for the Cloud Connectors rather than co-locating them on existing servers?
4Which component is responsible for brokering the connection between the user and the VDA in a Citrix Cloud deployment?
5When migrating to Citrix Cloud, what is the primary benefit of the 'Outbound-only' communication architecture of the Cloud Connector?
6An administrator is planning the migration of a large environment. What is the recommended number of Cloud Connectors per resource location to ensure high availability?
7An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops site to Citrix DaaS on Azure. Which step is essential to ensure that existing Machine Catalogs can be managed via the Citrix Cloud control plane?
8When migrating to Citrix DaaS, which tool should an administrator use to prepare the existing on-premises machine catalogs for cloud management?
9Refer to the exhibit. The administrator receives an error stating 'Catalog not found' when running the second command. What is the cause of this error?
10An administrator is migrating to Citrix Cloud and wants to minimize the number of Cloud Connectors. What is the factor that primarily dictates the number of Cloud Connectors required?
11An administrator is migrating an on-premises site to Citrix Cloud and discovers that some VDAs are not registering after the transition. The administrator verified that the Cloud Connector is healthy. What is the most likely cause?
12An administrator is planning to migrate an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site currently uses Citrix Provisioning (PVS) to stream images to 500 non-persistent VDAs. The administrator wants to minimize downtime and re-use existing master images where possible. Which migration approach should the administrator take to move these machines to Citrix DaaS?
13An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site currently uses Provisioning Services (PVS) to stream images to 500 virtual desktops. The administrator wants to continue using PVS during and after the migration. Which statement accurately describes the supported configuration for PVS in a Citrix DaaS deployment?
14An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses a Citrix Gateway (formerly NetScaler) for external access. After migration, the administrator wants to continue using the existing Citrix Gateway to provide external access to the published resources. Which statement correctly describes the integration of an on-premises Citrix Gateway with Citrix DaaS?
15An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses Provisioning Services (PVS) to stream images to VDAs. The administrator wants to continue using PVS after the migration. Which statement is true regarding PVS support in Citrix DaaS?
16An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses Citrix Profile Management with a file share hosted on a Windows Server 2016 file server. After migration, the administrator wants to continue using Citrix Profile Management but needs to ensure that user profiles remain accessible to the VDAs in the resource location. Which action must the administrator take?
17An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses a Citrix License Server to license the VDAs. After migration, the administrator wants to ensure that licensing continues to work. What must the administrator do?
18An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses machine catalogs with MCS provisioned machines on vSphere. The administrator plans to use Citrix Cloud Migration Service to migrate the site. Which two components must be present in the on-premises environment to support the migration? (Choose two.)
19An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops site to Citrix DaaS. The administrator needs to ensure that users can continue to access their applications and desktops during the migration with minimal disruption. Which migration approach should the administrator use?
20An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses a Citrix ADC for load balancing of StoreFront servers. The administrator wants to replace the on-premises StoreFront with Citrix Workspace and ensure high availability. Which two actions should the administrator take to ensure that users can access resources after migration? (Choose two.)
21An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses a Citrix Provisioning (PVS) solution to stream images to VDAs. The administrator wants to continue using PVS after migration to Citrix DaaS. Which two components are required to support this configuration? (Choose two.)
22An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses Citrix Gateway for remote access. After migration, the administrator wants to use Citrix Workspace to provide remote access to both on-premises and cloud-hosted resources. Which Citrix Cloud service should the administrator configure to replace the on-premises Citrix Gateway?
23An administrator is migrating an on-premises Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 site to Citrix DaaS. The on-premises site uses a Microsoft SQL Server database for the Citrix site database.
