 According to the Citrix documentation, automatic HA synchronization will fail if the primary and secondary Citrix ADCs have different build versions. The build versions must be the same for the configuration to be synchronized. A manual synchronization, a configuration change to the primary Citrix ADC, or a force failover will not affect the automatic HA synchronization1

According to the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops service on Citrix Cloud documentation, the control layer is always managed by Citrix when hosting Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops on the Citrix Cloud platform. The control layer consists of the Citrix Cloud Connector, Studio, Director, and other components that orchestrate the delivery of applications and desktops. The resource layer, which contains the VDAs, hypervisors, and storage, is managed by the customer or a service provider. The user layer, which contains the user profiles, policies, and data, is also managed by the customer or a service provider. The access layer, which contains the StoreFront and NetScaler Gateway components, can be either managed by Citrix or the customer, depending on the deployment scenario.

A server certificate is required for StoreFront to use HTTPS connections. A server certificate identifies the server and establishes trust between the server and the client. A client certificate is used to authenticate the client to the server, which is not necessary for StoreFront. An intermediate certificate is issued by a trusted root authority to another certificate authority, and is not used for server identification. A root certificate is the top-most certificate of the tree, and is used to validate the trustworthiness of the certificate authorities below it, but it is not used for server identification.

According to the Citrix documentation1, the triggerMonitor parameter specifies the conditions under which the service monitor is invoked. The possible values are:

ALWAYS: The service monitor is always invoked.

MEPDOWN: The service monitor is invoked only when Metric Exchange Protocol (MEP) has marked the service as DOWN for any reason.

MEPSUSPECT: The service monitor is invoked only when MEP has marked the service as SUSPECT.

NONE: The service monitor is never invoked.

Therefore, the command set gslb site SiteB –triggerMonitor MEPDOWN will set the triggerMonitor value to MEPDOWN for SiteB, which means the service monitor is invoked only when MEP has marked the service as DOWN for any reason.
