Ok.. So in this case you are saying that it will put a load of 500*6=3000 users on the server?
Will the data collection reflect this total number on the controller jmeter machine (in the grpThreads or allThreads columns in the reports)? -----Original Message----- From: sebb [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2010 8:59 PM To: JMeter Users List Subject: Re: How does remote testing distribute work? In JMeter client-server mode, the JMeter client sends the same test plan to ALL the servers which all run the same plan. It does not do any load distribution or balancing.
