We send the license access code in an email. There are three ways to generate license files using the license access code:.

See Allocate licenses. See Modify licenses. The Citrix License Server is a system that allows licenses to be shared across the network. For more information, see Licensing operations overview.

You can virtualize or cluster the Citrix License Server. For more information, see Clustered License Servers. Virtualizing the Citrix License Server provides a redundant solution. That solution allows for mobility between multiple physical servers without the need for downtime. License servers built in to the network appliances as required for those security-oriented network devices manage those licenses. The Citrix Licensing Manager enables downloading and allocation of license files from the License Server on which you installed the Citrix Licensing Manager.

The Citrix Licensing Manager is the recommended License Server management method, which enables the following:. For more information, see Citrix Licensing Manager. The License Administration Console is no longer supported and was removed from the License Server version We recommend you use the Citrix Licensing Manager.

You can use Studio to manage and track licensing, provided the License Server is in the same domain as Studio, or in a trusted domain. The license assignment period is the term that a Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops license is assigned to a user or device.

The default license assignment period is 90 days. For information about disaster recovery and maintenance of your License Server, see Disaster recovery and maintenance in the Citrix Licensing documentation. This approach provides you with maximum flexibility and improves alignment with Microsoft desktop virtualization licensing.

The License Server or cloud service assigns licenses. Concurrent licenses allow one connection to an unlimited number of virtual apps and desktops for any user and any device. A license is consumed only during an active session. If the session disconnects or is terminated, the license is checked back into the pool. You can download the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops software and run it in trial mode.

Trial mode lets you use Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops on-premises for 30 days, for 10 connections, without a license. For more information, see Evaluation licenses. Check with your Citrix representative for further details. The Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops concurrent model allows one connection to an unlimited number of virtual apps and desktops for any user and any device.

If the session disconnects or is terminated, the license is checked back into the pool for reissue. For more information, see Concurrent license. We recommend that you install the latest License Server version.

If you are unsure if your License Server version is current, verify it by comparing your version with the number on the Citrix downloads site. For more information, see Multi-type licensing. The minimum versions that support multi-type licensing are XenApp and XenDesktop 7. For a full feature matrix by edition, see Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops features.

The License Server then controls and monitors license compliance. We recommend that you configure your product based on what you purchased. For more information, see the Product License Compliance Center. When you purchase a minimum of 25 users of the service, you receive of hours of rights to use the service, pooled across all users.

To increase the entitlement of service hours, buy add-on packs. It allows that single user unlimited connections from unlimited devices. If a user connects to a desktop or device, the user requires one license assigned to that user to access a virtual desktop or application. The License Server or cloud service assigns the license. The license is assigned to the user, not the shared device.

A licensed device requires a unique endpoint device ID. For example, a shared device can be a classroom workstation or a clinical workstation in a hospital. We base concurrent licensing on concurrent device connections.

A concurrent license is in use only when a device has established an active connection. Once the connection ends, the concurrent license returns to the license pool for immediate use. We recommend this licensing model for occasional usage. Both types can be present in the same enterprise.

The License Server optimally assigns licenses to users or devices based on usage. Assess the use case requirements to determine the appropriate number of licenses.

Concurrent licensing enables unlimited access to unlimited virtual desktops and virtual apps from a single device that an unlimited number of users can use.

Consider the following formula:. For more information, see Display or release licenses for users or devices. For more information, see Panels on the Director Dashboard. The supplemental grace period feature is offered as a convenience, not as a license entitlement.

Citrix reserves the right to remove any such feature in new product releases. At the time it is sufficient for the number of users connecting. When the st license was used, the overdraft feature was activated. Your users can continue to connect without any disruption of service. You start evaluating your licensing needs now.

Do not wait until you exceed the OD. Think about buying more licenses in addition to the you bought initially. When the st license was used, the 15 day supplemental grace period SPG started, to allow you time to evaluate your license needs.

Users cannot make new connections if doing so requires more than licenses to be checked out. You cannot re-enable the supplemental grace period until you purchase and install more licenses. Example 2: Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops concurrent licenses using supplemental grace period feature. You initially purchase and install concurrent licenses I. There is no overdraft allowance with concurrent licenses. At the time these licenses are sufficient for the number of users connecting.

Do not wait until the supplemental grace period runs out. The following table lists the support for license overdraft and supplemental grace period for each product. On-premises subscription licensing allows customers to host a Citrix environment within their infrastructure for a set period.

The on-premises subscription license is time bound for years and expires on a specific date. The license ceases to operate following the expiration date. The products offer everything that is available today with perpetual licenses. Your purchase includes both an on-premises subscription license and Customer Success Services Select service.

Customer Success Select service is included for the entire term of the subscription. Mixing permanent perpetual and subscription licenses is supported. They can be used to expand existing environments provided customers use the same product, edition, and license model.

There are no performance impacts to using perpetual vs. The only difference between them is one expires. For products that are automatically renewed each month, Citrix does not send notifications before expiration. For products that are not automatically renewed, Citrix notifies you at certain intervals when your existing subscription approaches expiration.

These notifications alert you to extend the subscription and avoid service interruption. All on-premises subscription, annual and other term-based retail licenses include an additional 30 days built into the expiration date for continued access. These additional 30 days are included in the expiration date shown in the Citrix Licensing Manager. You can use these 30 days to repurchase subscription licenses, allocate, and install before the original subscription license expires.

If you do not renew, the product gets into an unlicensed state with limited capabilities. Example: If you purchased a one year on-premises subscription license on 21 Oct , your license will expire at on 22 Nov When your on-premises subscription expires, as per the date listed in the Citrix Licensing Manager, no new connections are allowed. Existing users are not impacted, however, if users log off or disconnect they are not allowed to reconnect.

The Citrix Auto-Renewal program is the default renewal program for all on-premises subscription licenses. On-premises subscriptions licenses are enrolled in the Auto-Renewal program. Licenses with a future start date are not displayed in the License Server inventory until the actual start date mentioned in the license file.

Will on-premises subscription licenses work with existing perpetual licenses on the same server? Yes, within the guidelines of existing license server operation. Customers must add a new term license file to the license server. This license combination is non-standard and requires consideration and additional configuration. This combination may not be optimal for license utilization.

This license combination is non-standard and not advisable. Requires customer to have multiple sites or farms to use all purchased licenses. No new connections are allowed after the license expires. Existing connections would not be impacted until users disconnect, logoff, or reset. Will there be a supplemental grace period SGP of 15 days or does that only apply to perpetual licenses? There is no grace period for license expiration. An extra month is added into the expiration date for customers to install repurchased licenses.
