Note

Studio and Director do not support Citrix License Server VPX. For more information about Citrix License Server VPX, see the Citrix Licensing documentation.

From Studio, you can manage and track licensing, if the license server is in the same domain as Studio or in a trusted domain. For information about other licensing tasks, see the licensing documentation and Multi-type licensing.

You must be a full license administrator to complete the tasks described below, except for viewing license information. To view license information in Studio, an administrator must have at least the Read Licensing Delegated Administration permission; the built-in Full Administrator and Read-Only Administrator roles have that permission.

The following table lists the supported editions and license models:

Important:

The License Server VPX is deprecated and won’t receive any further maintenance or security fixes. Customers using 11.16.6 or previous versions of License Server VPX are advised to migrate to the latest version of License Server for Windows as soon as possible.

Supported Long Term Service Release (LTSRs) version

For information about supported Current Release (CRs), Long Term Service Release (LTSRs), and minimum compatible LS versions, see the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops current release documentation.
