Sadly, this doesn't work. When the test plan begins, JMeter seems to open the output file for every listener in the test plan. Therefore, even if I run thread groups sequentially, JMeter locks the output files for thread group 2 right at the beginning, so thread group 1 can't rename the file even though thread group 2 hasn't started yet. Instead, I plan to run JMeter in non-GUI mode from a batch file, and do the renaming from the batch file. Probably a better option for automated testing anyway. Cheerio, Bennett.
