Not quite, the rule is as follows: Duration (seconds) IIf the scheduler checkbox is selected, one can choose a relative end time. JMeter will use this to calculate the End Time, and ignore the End Time value. Startup delay (seconds) If the scheduler checkbox is selected, one can choose a relative startup delay. JMeter will use this to calculate the Start Time, and ignore the Start Time value. Please see the manual where this is described: http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#Thread_Group > > santiagoloso wrote: > > > I've tried this solution, and didn't worked out.
