PerfMon Metrics Collector showing "Waiting for samples..."

[andy...@gmail.com]

Hi,

I'm running ServerAgent 2.2.1, and I can telnet to it and request and receive metrics. But I can't see any metrics from the JMeter 2.9 GUI.

From the ServerAgent console, I can see the client connects ok and requests the configured metrics, but then the client seems to send an "exit" request.

I'm new to JMeter - do I need a test to be running? I was hoping to just be able to receive statistics...

Thanks,

Andy

That's easy - your test has no duration, so JMeter has no time to collect any sample. Add some samplers, some loops, and you'll see the graphs.

Thanks Andrey. I don't actually have a JMeter test, I just wanted to see a capture and plot. I need a way to capture statistics, and PerfMon looks like it fits the bill.

Overcoming this is easy: just add a thread group to your test, set its loop parameter to "forever" and add a Dummy Sampler into thread group. Then you can start and stop your perfmon data collection manually.

I am new to jmeter and I have created a test plan for webservice.I have added the perfmon matric collector to my test plan.

The webservices are running on a remote server so I have to be on VPN to run this.

In the Preformon matric collector I have mentioned my server details as below

servername  Port:4444 CPU

After all this setup I have unziped the ServerAgent.zip file on the Server in one tmp directory.

I go to the remote server and start the StartAgent.sh as below

./startAgent.sh
INFO    2013-11-01 09:16:00.996 [kg.apc.p] (): Binding UDP to 4444
INFO    2013-11-01 09:16:02.000 [kg.apc.p] (): Binding TCP to 4444
INFO    2013-11-01 09:16:02.003 [kg.apc.p] (): JP@GC Agent v2.2.0 started

It looks like it is started.Now i go to jmeter and run the test plan i created.

after the jmeter test plan runs i get error in the as below

ERROR: java.io.IOException: Agent is unreachable via UDP

 

Please see the attached doc to see the jmeter test plan I created.

I really want to make this work.Can you please help me.DO i have to make changes in any properties files or in the StartAgent.sh file for my testing?

Do I need to change anything?
