I would recommend setting the feature release level to FR2 for all servers
and then install all the updates you want on all the servers. When all
servers have the same level of FR3 and patches installed, then set the
feature release level on all servers to FR3. We have done this successfully
in the past and it avoids and any potential issues that might stem from
mixing FR2 and Fr3. The licenses for FR3 do support running FR2 simply by
setting the Feature Release level in the CMC.

Subject: [THIN] Feature Release license activation
Our Citrix server farm is currently running on Win 2000 service pack 3 (plus
hotfixes) and XP FR2 / SP2, but we have been testing a build based on Win
2000 SP4 and XP FR3 / SP4 (plus hotfixes) and now intend to roll these
patches out across the farm. Due to the sensitivity of the users to
downtime, we would like to roll out the patches on a phased basis across all
the server silos over a week or so. Are there any issues to be aware of
with running a mix of FR2 and FR3 servers on a temporary basis? Seems to
work fine on our test system :)
Also, we have already got the FR3 connection license numbers through our
subscription advantage. If we use the Citrix multiple license update
facility to upgrade all our connection licenses to FR3 before starting to
patch, will there be any license issues with the servers still running FR2,
i.e. will FR2 servers use FR3 connection licenses?
Thanks in advance
David Lee
