passing Number of threads from command prompt
If there are few thread groups in a Jmeter test plan and if we want to pass
the number of threads (users),
Ramp up time as parameters from command prompt in the below mentioned way.
Does this work?
To specify 1 user per user group for 5 groups (total 5 users), ramp up in 1
second,
and 25 loops each group iterates over the same operation set:
./bin/jmeter.lucene -t MyWebPerfScenario.jmx \\
-Jgroup1.threads=1 -Jgroup1.loops=25 -Jgroup1.rampup=1 \\
-Jgroup2.threads=1 -Jgroup2.loops=25 -Jgroup2.rampup=1 \\
-Jgroup3.threads=1 -Jgroup3.loops=25 -Jgroup3.rampup=1 \\
-Jgroup4.threads=1 -Jgroup4.loops=25 -Jgroup4.rampup=1 \\
-Jgroup5.threads=1 -Jgroup5.loops=25 -Jgroup5.rampup=1
I tried it, but its not taking the parameters. Do we have to make some
changes in the Jmeter.properties file to do so?

In the test plan, in the thread group settings, populate those fields
with functions that evaluate a property.
So you make up a bunch of parameters, something like
pThreadGroup1
pThreadGroup1ramp
pThreadGroup2
pThreadGroup2ramp
...
Etc
In the test plan itself, define the number of users for ThreadGroup1 to
be a function that evaluates the property
${__P(pThreadGroup1)}
And the rampup to be
${__P(pThreadGroup1ramp)}
Then when you run the test plan, pass the values to use for the
properties.. either via a properties file or via command line switches
Jmeter -t testplan.jmx -JpThreadGroup1=10
Etc

No, but you do need to refer to the properties in the appropriate
thread group GUI fields.
For example, in the Ramp-up field, use ${__P(group1.rampup)} etc.
