A Citrix Administrator is configuring a Citrix Virtual Desktops Site for use with a mirrored...

When deploying a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Site with SQL database mirroring, Citrix requires that the collation setting used by the Site database must be explicitly set and must match the required Citrix standard. Citrix documentation states that the database collation must be case-insensitive and consistent between the principal and mirror SQL servers.

This collation is not automatically assigned by SQL Server when you create an empty database for mirroring. Therefore, administrators must manually configure the correct collation during initial creation. If the collation does not match Citrix requirements, the Site creation or Controller functionality may fail.

Other listed options (SQL version, database type, mirroring version) do not require manual configuration at database-creation time for Citrix Sites.
