have been trying to setup distributed/remote testing with JMeter. I have a
slave installation on a linux box with IP: 172.16.2.44 and a master Windows XP
box with IP: 172.16.40.117. I have started the slave installation with
“SERVER_PORT=9409 jmeter-server”. When I do a ps –eaf on the slave (linux box)
I see this:
neel 9731 9727 0 13:40 pts/0 00:00:00 rmiregistry 9409
neel 9733 9727 0 13:40 pts/0 00:00:00 /bin/sh
/home/indus/jakarta-jmeter-2.2/bin/jmeter -Dserver_port=9409 -s CLASS
PATH=
neel 9735 9733 0 13:40 pts/0 00:00:00 java -server -Xms256m -Xmx256m
-XX:NewSize=128m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m -XX:MaxTe
nuringThreshold=2 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=600000
-Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=600000 -XX:PermSize=64m -XX:MaxPermS
ize=64m -jar /home/indus/jakarta-jmeter-2.2/bin/ApacheJMeter.jar
-Dserver_port=9409 -s CLASSPATH=
Now I go to the master (Windows XP box) and change only one line in
jmeter.properties file - remote_hosts=172.16.2.44:9409 and start JMeter in GUI
mode. When I click Run -> Remote Start -> 172.16.2.44:9409, I get the following
error in jmeter.log –
2007/04/21 13:55:21 INFO - jmeter.engine.ClientJMeterEngine: about to run

.
and so on …
I have tried modifying the jmeter.properties file by saying -
remote_hosts=172.16.2.44
server_port=9409
But the same error occurs. I can ping the slave machine (172.16.2.44) from the
Windows box and vice versa. What am I doing wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards
Indraneel
