A monitor writer can be defined to capture measures during load tests. Monitor writes write a time series data (.tsd) file
that you can include in an overview report or use as the basis for a chart.
-
On the
Real-Time Monitoring tab, in the
New group, click
Monitor Writer.
-
Drag measures from the
Monitor tree onto the writer.
-
On the
Real-Time Monitoring tab, in the
Control group, click
Recording.
-
Specify a directory for the .tsd file and click
Save.
Performance Explorer will write all captured values into this .tsd file.
Note: If you are running a
load
test and the workspace you have assigned to your profiles contains a monitor writer, all monitor writers begin writing automatically
when the test starts and stop when the test finishes.
All monitor writers are stored in the result directory of the
load
test.
Note: For SAPGUI data sources, it is recommended that you change the monitor interval to 20 seconds or higher. To change the interval,
click
Properties in the
Report group, on the
Report tab. Then click the
TSD-Writer tab and change the interval.
