One decent open source option for Mercury Diagnostics-like functionality: http://www.zabbix.org
Zabbix allows you to monitor standard performance metrics of multiple server tiers via your web browser. In addition to standard stuff like CPU load, you can create custom metrics (i.e. pulling out JVM GC metrics using Java 5 jstat utility, vmstat metrics such as number of processes blocked, etc.), and build custom screens containing multiple graphs of these metrics that can be easily viewed on one web page while the load test runs. -D -----Original Message----- From: rmiller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Fri 12/1/2006 6:31 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Newbie questions I am new to JMeter but have a lot of experience using LoadRunner and Silk Performer. There are a couple of features in these applications that I can't find in JMeter: 1. Monitor system resources remotely, especially Linu/Unix devises. I know how to monitor Tomcat servers using the Monitor Results listener but I also want to monitor CPU utilization and other resources. If this can't be done in JMeter can anyone suggest other tools to remotely monitor system resources on Linux/Unix machines? (I know about Perfmon for Windows) 2. Some of the applications I test send several HTTP requests for a single transaction. LoadRunner has the ability to wrap a "timer" around these requests and report the total response time for the entire transaction. Is there a way to do this in JMeter?
