If you want to collect response time
breakdown data from remote computers used in distributed applications, you
must install and configure the data collection infrastructure on the remote
computers.
Data collection infrastructure overview
The data collection infrastructure
collects performance profiling data for distributed applications and
sends the data to the workbench computer, where you can view and analyze
the collected data. The data collection infrastructure must be installed,
configured, and running on all remote computers that will be used
in your distributed application. The data collection infrastructure
is installed when you install Rational® Performance Tester Agent.
Instrumenting local servers
You must instrument application
servers to collect response time breakdown data. You can use either
a command-line or graphical user interface to instrument application
servers to work with the data collection infrastructure.
Instrumenting servers by using the command prompt
You must instrument application
servers to collect response time breakdown data. You can use either
a command prompt or graphical user interface to instrument application
servers to work with the data collection infrastructure.
Removing instrumentation
Before you uninstall the data collection infrastructure,
you must remove instrumentation from all application servers that
were instrumented to work with the data collection infrastructure.
