Remotely starting and stopping jmeter server from command line
Hello All,
I wanted to see if there was a way to remotely start and stop
jmeter-server from a client machine. Basically I want to cycle
jmeter-server before all of my test's. My setup is 2 jmeter servers and
one jmeter client machine. I am starting the tests from the client
machine with the following statement:
jmeter -n -t ./TestPlans/pingTwoServers100Threads100Loops.jmx -R
$jmeterserverone:11099, $jmeterservertwo:11099
I have already written a script that I can call after the test is done
that will kill the jmeter-server instance but I was hoping that there is
a command line option to start jmeter-server if it is not started on the
remote server.
Thanks,
Chad

I ended up using this to start and stop the servers:
ssh $jmeterserverone \"setsid
/home/chuesgen/jakarta-jmeter/bin/jmeter-server >> ~/jmeterServer.out
2>&1 &\"
Just in case anyone needs to do this in the future.
Thanks,
Chad

How do you start a background process normally on the remote host OS?
Just pass that command to ssh.
For example the following may work on some OSes:
ssh ... nohup jmeter-server &

RE: Remotely starting and stopping jmeter server from command line
Posted by "Huesgen, Chad" <ch...@litle.com>.
Thank you for the response sebb the -X definitely is a much nicer way of
stopping jmeter-server then my kill -9. The problem with starting
jmeter-server with a script is if I use ssh to start it jmeter-server
will not start as a background process so the script that I have to kick
off all of the test cases sits there and waits for the response from
ssh. I am playing with some different scenarios to try to get this to
work with ssh, using setsid etc. But if anyone has already done this
with a script, remotely start jmeter-server and has the code that would
be great.
Thanks,
Chad

Or just use the -X option:

AFAIK, that would require OS-specific code as well as knowledge of
login name and password.
If you are familiar with the server OS facilities, you may be able to
set something up using e.g. inetd which could listen on a suitable
port. Otherwise just create a suitable remote shell command script.
