Measuring CPU utilization

Hi,

Does anyone know if it is possible for JMeter to record the CPU 
utilization of a remote web server machine (Windows or Linux) under test 
? Couldn't find anything in the user manual about this (admittedly it 
was a quick skim) so before trying to roll something of my own it would 
be interesting to hear if there are well established techniques for 
doing this.

Best regards,
George

I found this helpful and it does the trick for tomcat5

http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/build-monitor-test-plan.html

if you give an output file name you can save the processed results, well
that's my plan anway.

we wrote small sampler for monitoring unix machines with rstat demon:

and for visualization:
http://swirstatdgraph.sourceforge.net/

Hello, if you do roll-ur-own: JMeter definitely has access to anything you want in terms of system stuff. If you get the source look into building a so-called Visualizer and related topics. HTH.

Yet some, not wise, go to the other side of the globe, to barbarous and unhealthy regions, and devote ten or twenty years, in that they may live,-that is, keep comfortably warm,- and die in New England at last.
