Which two options should a Citrix Administrator consider when adding a secondary device in a high availability (HA) pair? (Choose two.)
A. The Independent Network Configuration (INC) mode should be enabled.
B. Both the devices should have different SNIP addresses.
C. The nsroot password should be the same on both nodes.
D. HA Monitoring should be disabled on all the unused interfaces.
E. Configure the HA status of the Primary Node as STAYPRIMARY.
CD
E is wrong beacuse they both need to stay ENABLED. If fixed to stayprimary and stay secondary, HA has no reason to exist and VIP/SNIP will not float in case of HA failure
not true, we are talking about adding a node, not leave the staypprimary forever.
Extra safety is to say stayprimary on primary node, for not replicating any invalid configuration from secondary to primary and break the cluster (and then need to recover from backup config file).
So is CE.
I think the correct answer is:
C. The nsroot password should be the same on both nodes.
E. Configure the HA status of the Primary Node as STAYPRIMARY.

When configuring HA, the configured appliances must have same password for the nsroot account.
