Thank you for the information. If I use the Beanshell server, I will limit the inbound IPs with the OS' firewall.
Into the documentation, I saw that you can access the JMeter process so as to alter a global property. Is there any other property or object that can give any additionnal information ? Most of the Beanshell JMeter documentation is related to thread specific objects (ctx, vars, etc.)... Otherwise, I'll follow your advice and parse the log files. 2015-06-18 14:21 GMT+02:00 sebb <[email protected]>: > On 18 June 2015 at 10:07, Benjamin BALET <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > We are setting up a load testing platform and developping some tools in > go. > > > > We'd like to remotely check a JMeter load generator and (if possible) get > > some statistics or infos from a JMeter daemon.
