JMETER 4. 0 | JMeter distributed load testing | jp@gc - Stepping Thread Group | Slave Machine | CPU Utilization

  1. When executing the script Slave 1 CPU Utilization = 40% and Slave 2 CPU Utilization = 4%. Only one slave machine is generating load i.e Slave 1 but Slave 2 is not generating load. How do I ensure both the machine generates load with respect the threads 50 running on each machine. While the report show that total 100 threads are completed.

  2. How to know a slave is generating load.

Configuration: 

Master(My own machine)
2 slaves machines
Thread: jp@gc - Stepping Thread Group
Users=50
Hold Load=300sec
Solution

  • You may check access log of your web server to see from what ips it gets requests.

    Could you specify what web server do you use?

    For Apache it can be:

    • /var/log/apache/access.log
    • /var/log/apache2/access.log
    • /var/log/httpd/access.log

    In the log you should see something like that:

    127.0.0.1 - test [1/Feb/2019:10:34:12 -0700] "GET /test-image.jpg HTTP/2" 200 1479

    where 127.0.0.1 - ip of your load agents.
