Distributed load and number of clients

Hi,

If I have a test plan defined with 50 threads and run it locally, I simulate
50 users.

if I run the same test plan in distributed mode across, say 5 hosts, would
that then simulate 250 users accessing the target? (i.e. divide number of
threads by number of clients / jmeter servers to keep # threads the same)?

Regards,
brett

Hi,

Exactly,
The same test plan is sent to all JMeter Hosts. Each of them will simulate
50 threads.
