i want to perform distributed testing on a couple of slaves machines with different purposes and use the same master for that. the problem is that it's not working good together. for example: i have 3 slaves who are responsible to execute test plan X and i have 3 slaves who are responsible to execute test Y.

when i invoke just test X or just test Y the master and the slaves works fine, but when i try to invoke test X and then test Y the later get close immediately.

i guess that it's because the rmi port is used by the previous test.

is there any when to configure the properties file so i can execute both test X and test Y?

You cannot run more than one test at a time on a given slave.

If your slave machines are powerful enough you can launch 2 different slaves processes on different ports like:

  1. Start slave process #1 on port 1111:

    jmeter -Jserver.rmi.port=1111 -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=10.20.30.40 -s

  2. Start slave process #2 on port 2222:

    jmeter -Jserver.rmi.port=2222 -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=10.20.30.40 -s

  3. Now you can specify on master on which slave you want to execute the current test like:

    • jmeter -Jremote_hosts=10.20.30.40:1111 -r -n -t test1.jmx will start test1 on first slave instance

    • jmeter -Jremote_hosts=10.20.30.40:2222 -r -n -t test2.jmx will start test2 on second slave instance

      and these may go in parallel

  • i am not talking about multiple tests on slaves, but multiple clients on the master. each slave will run 1 test – Dev93 May 20 '20 at 15:05
