Attention: This blog post was originally written in Swedish but has been translated with Google.

A few days ago, the latest update for XenApp 7.6 LTSR, Cumulative Update 3, was released. The update is released for all license levels of XenApp. Versions for CU3 of the various components are as follows:

  • VDA for Client OS* 7.6.3000
  • VDA for Server OS 7.6.3000
  • Delivery Controller 7.6.3000
  • Citrix Studio 7.6.3000
  • Citrix Director 7.6.3000
  • Group Policy Management Experience 2.5.3000
  • StoreFront 7.6.4
  • Provisioning Services* 7.6.4
  • Universal Print Server** 7.6.3000
  • Session Recording*** 7.6.3000

As it is the Citrix Long Term Service Release, there are no major news in the new versions, but the main focus has been on improving stability and security further.
If it is the case that you yourself operate a Citrix XenApp LTSR platform, I would like to recommend the below tool from Citrix, their LTSR Assistant. The tool checks that the correct versions are installed and that everything looks correct from a version perspective.

Right now the tool only works up to CU2, but I'm confident that an updated version will arrive in the next few days or weeks. If the assistant is used together with Citrix Scout, you will get a really good overview of your platform!
