Note: Citrix does not recommend mixing non-compliant components with an LTSR environment. However, the decision to add a non-compliant component to an LTSR environment should be based on the customer’s risk tolerance. The intention of LTSR is to provide a customer with the best possible long-term stability via minimum environment changes. Deviation from the identified LTSR components introduces risk into the environment, although Citrix does make every effort to release products with the highest level of quality. In terms of the support experience, the mixed LTSR and non-compliant components environment will be supported based on the terms of the support contract and the individual component’s LTSR status.
 
To ensure best performance and security, Citrix recommends installing the latest StoreFront updates within a few months of their availability.
