HP Performance Monitoring Best Practices.New guide that provides concepts, guidelines, and practical examples on best implementation of performance testing monitoring in various environments. Available from<HP LoadRunner installation directory>\help\Monitoring_BP.pdf.

SiteScope 10.0.Added support for SiteScope 10.0 with the following limitation:

If you are using the SiteScope monitor engine in the Controller, and you specify a monitored machine name using a fully qualified domain name or IP address, the Controller will fail to display the default graph measurements.Workaround:If you manually add any additional measurement, all the measurements will be displayed. Alternatively, specify only the actual machine name (without any domain suffix).Note:A patch will be delivered by SiteScope to fix this limitation.51Testing软件测试网\+~+az'W

Citrix window sizes.Citrix Protocol supports additional window sizes (including widescreen resolutions). This can be configured in the Recording Options dialogue box.

Citrix XenApp Plugin for Hosted Applications 11 supported.Citrix Protocol now supports the XenApp Plugin for Hosted Applications version 11.

TCP mode support.TCP mode is now fully supported by the Webtrace utility and the Network Delay Time monitor on Windows platforms (including XP and Vista).

Flex Externalizable Run-Time Settings.New options that display the settings used during script. recording and allow you to edit the location of the JAR files.

New Diagnostics graph in Analysis.The newJ2EE/.NET – Probes Metricsgraph displays performance metrics collected by HP Diagnostics probes. Metrics include JVM related data such as Heap usage and Garbage Collection, application server specific metrics, JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) metrics, and more.

New throughput graph in Analysis.In addition to the existing throughput graph, a new throughput graph,Throughput (MB), has been added to enable viewing throughput in megabytes.

New date formats in Analysis.New date format configuration options have been added in Analysis (Tools > Options > General) for newly created sessions. The new options areTraditional ChineseandLocal Regional Options(the date format as defined in the current user's regional settings).

Post collate command in Controller.In the post collate command, you can now use the%ResultDir%keyword to refer to the scenario's results directory.

Limitations

Analysis 9.51 sessions.Analysis sessions created in version 9.51 are not supported in version 9.50.

Analysis with MS SQL 2005 Database.If you use an MS SQL 2005 database to store Analysis data, passwords containing mixed characters are not supported.Workaround: Use Windows integrated security or set MS SQL user password with upper case characters (A-Z) and digits (0-9) only.

SAP (Click and Script) recording.During recording, if you use a keyboard option instead of a UI element (for example, pressingEnterinstead of clicking thelog onbutton), the step may not be recorded. In general, when recording your script, it is recommended to use UI elements rather than keyboard options.

Citrix snapshots.Black snapshots may appear during record or replay when using Citrix Presentation Server 4.0 and 4.5 (before Rollup Pack 3).

Possible workaround:On the Citrix server selectStart Menu > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Terminal Services Configuration > Server Settings > Licensingand change the settingPer UserorPer Deviceto the alternative setting (i.e. If it is set toPer User, change it toPer Deviceand vice versa.)51Testing软件测试网`r%Sqt ?|7Z

Recording Window Size and XenApp Plugin for Hosted Applications 11.The recording window size options does not work properly with the XenApp Plugin for Hosted Applications 11. The size of the client window is installed, but the server screen resolution is not. This is a Citrix Client bug and will be fixed in future Citrix Client versions.

Workaround:When recording, set the window size equal to the local screen resolution. When replaying/load testing, set the VuGen or Load Generator's screen resolution to equal the resolution used when the script. was recorded. To verify the recorded resolution, view the Window property in the<Script. Folder>\default.cfgfile.
