Citrix Netscaler in HA

Very good, I leave you a Post by the great Oscar Mas, one of the great Citrix & Shoring, Enjoy: Today I'm going to show you how to set up a NetScaler system in High Availability (HAS), Performing the configuration by console. We start from the base of two NetScaler servers, which one of them is fully configured (netscaler1.ilba.cat). The first thing we will do is link the two NetScalers and then join them, so that in the event of a fall of one of the two, the other continues to work.
