All JMeter slaves are *independent* and execute the same test plan. If you define 50 users in the Thread Group and will have 1 slave - you will have 50 users. For 2 slaves it will be 100 users, 3 slaves - 150 users, etc.
This is highlighted in one of the first Remote Testing Documentation <http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/remote-test.html> chapters: > Note: The same test plan is run by all the servers. JMeter does not > distribute the load between servers, each runs the full test plan. So if > you set 1000 Threads and have 6 JMeter server, you end up injecting 6000 > Threads. So if you need to mimic 1000 users and have 13 slaves each slave should have something like *77 users*, amend your Thread Group <http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/component_reference.html#Thread_Group> settings accordingly as it appears that you have 13 000 instead. Check out JMeter Distributed Testing Step-by-step <https://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/jmeter_distributed_testing_step_by_step.pdf> and How to Perform Distributed Testing in JMeter <https://www.blazemeter.com/blog/how-to-perform-distributed-testing-in-jmeter> articles for more information if needed. Also be aware that if you need to simulate 1000 users only my expectation is that it can be done from a single host, just make sure you're following JMeter Best Practices <http://jmeter.apache.org/usermanual/best-practices.html> . -- Sent from: http://www.jmeter-archive.org/JMeter-User-f512775.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
