Just out of interest - is it a single app -- or couple of apps - to a db
backend, or is it more of a desktop environment?

Sorry guys I cant really give out any more information because of the
nature of the project.

 

But all I can say is thay my inital WAN concerns are now addressed with
this kind of farm design. I found out last night they are all 2M links
with a 100M wan link at the core datacenter, % utilization of the WAN
looks very low. Traffic is also shaped which will help.

 

I would have to admit though, doing this with Metaframe XP 1.0 would
have been near impossible, but when Citrix changed the way Zones can
communicate over multiple subnets (ie disabling LB across zones) its now
a viable option, Also using policies to control LB behavior within those
zones is a real bonus.

My biggest question about this design is "Where is the application
data". Is the data for these applications be replicated between all 27
of these sites. I would get that question answered first then design
Citrix around that.
