Introduction
In addition to measuring the client and server response time, Web Performance
Test allows monitoring of CPU utilization (in %) and memory
usage (in %) of the web server or database servers. It provides the ability
to remotely monitor the above resources without any server-side installation
in Windows, Linux and Solaris.
|
|
Note: For Windows, if the specified host is a remote host, server monitoring is done
only if the remote host is in the same domain as the local host from where
the test is executed. |
Configuring
Server Resource Monitoring
Server Resource Monitoring is supported for Windows, Linux and Solaris
platforms. In Windows, server resource monitoring is done using WMI. In
Linux/Solaris, server resource monitoring is done using Telnet/SSH.
|
|
The Server Monitoring UI opened
through 'Server Monitoring' link in the load test screen allows you to
configure and choose one or more server monitors. During playback of the
script, play engine starts all the chosen server monitors which will then
report the resource utilization of the monitored servers. |
To know the detailed server monitoring configuration details, please
refer to the Adding Server Monitoring .
