Yasir, 1. In general, the master will not run load tests when "Remote Start All" is run. It might if you include the master's IP address in the configuration file; I never tried it, but as you say, it is best not to run on the master.
2. There will be 50 threads running on each slave for a total of 100 threads. I hope this helps.

Does the master also run load tests when "Remote Start All" is run ? >From my understanding it is better to have Jmeter run tests only on the slave machines and have master present just for administering test and monitoring results. Is it a common practice to have no tests run on the master? 2. If the number of threads are set to 50 for remote tests and if there are two slaves then are there 100 or 50 threads executing in total?
