			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The purpose of a firewall is to increase security by blocking communications and allowing communications with only certain ports, such as 80 and 443 for HTTP and HTTPS traffic.<br />
By default, the LoadRunner Controller uses TCP port 50500 to send data to TCP port 54345 on the Windows Load Generator.<br />
The Load Generator sends information back via a dynamic port, through the MI Listener.<br />
To avoid having to beg Network Administrators for more ports to be opened, on each load generator machine inside the firewall, from</p>
<p>Start &gt; Programs &gt; LoadRunner &gt; Advanced Settings &gt; Agent Configuration (launch_service\bin\AgentConfig.exe)</p>
<p>install the (Monitoring Over Firewall machine) MoFW/RoWF agent.</p>
<p>Check the option &#8220;Enable Firewall Agent&#8221;.  It collects performance counters and sends them to a controller over a firewall. MoFW communicates with the MI Listener through port 443, so you can&#8217;t have any web servers (like Apache WebTours, IIS, or Oracle HTTP servers) running on both the machines.<br />
Verify whether port 443 actually allows communication by running command and substituting the ip address in:<br />
telnet 194.194.194.194 443<br />
This should open a telnet window.</p>
<p>UNIX Load Generator uses a dynamic port that cannot be fixed.<br />
When defining a &#8220;remote&#8221; load generator from within the Controller, click &#8220;Details&#8221; for the &#8220;Load Generator Information&#8221; dialog, where you can click the &#8220;Firewall&#8221; tab and check &#8220;Enable Firewall&#8221;.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Issue</strong>: After the scenario has been set up with certain load generators, while starting the scenario we face some errors due to Load generators.</p>
<p><strong>Solution</strong>: Note the scripts for which the particular load generator has been used. Open the <em><strong>.prm</strong></em> file for the particular scripts. We can see the mismatch of parameterization name from the script to the prm file of the corresponding script. Now modify the parameter name which is correctly given during parameterization in the script.</p>
<p>Once it is changed and restart the scenario, it will run successfully.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>LoadRunner</strong>:   Anatomy of a Script</p>
<p>When you record and save a LoadRunner script in Vugen, there are a number of files that are created. Here&#8217;s what they are, and what they do and identification of the files you can safely delete..</p>
<p><strong>Files Required for Playback</strong><br />
During the course of recording and playback of scripts, the Vugen application will create many files, but only some of them are necessary for playback (either in Vugen or the Controller).</p>
<p>For example, say you have script named PerformancEngineer, with two Actions, Home and Forums, then the required files you would need in the PerformanceEngineer script directory would be:</p>
<p>* PerformanceEngineer.usr<br />
* default.usp<br />
* default.cfg<br />
* globals.h<br />
* Home.c<br />
* Forums.c<br />
* vuser_init.c<br />
* vuser_end.c<br />
* PerformanceEngineer.prm</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s what is in each file:</p>
<p><em><strong>PerformanceEngineer.usr</strong></em>: Primarily, the .usr file defines which actions are used by the script. There are other properties which define which protocols are used and other settings, but most of the info</p>
<p><em><strong>default.usp</strong></em>: Contains the run logic for the script</p>
<p><em><strong>default.cfg</strong></em>: Contains the run-time settings (except for run-logic)</p>
<p><em><strong>globals.h</strong></em>: The global headers file- visible and editable in Vugen</p>
<p><em><strong>*.c (Action files)</strong></em>: These are the action files containing your script code. You can edit these files in any text editor, if you want. Sometimes it is easier than starting up Vugen</p>
<p><em><strong>PerformanceEngineer.prm</strong></em>: Containes the parameter definitions</p>
<p><em><strong>*.dat</strong></em>: Your data files, you can save these in the script directory or somewhere else, even a mapped network drive on a different server<br />
Files Created During Vugen Playback</p>
<p>All of the files listed below can safely be deleted and not affect your ability to use the script.</p>
<p><em><strong>result1</strong></em>: One or more result directories are created which contain script playback results</p>
<p><em><strong>*.idx</strong></em>: The .idx files are binary &#8220;index&#8221; files created by Vugen for holding parameter values</p>
<p><em><strong>PerformanceEngineer.ci</strong></em>:</p>
<p><em><strong>combined_PerformanceEngineer.c</strong></em>: A list of #includes for all of your Actions</p>
<p><em><strong>logfile.log, mdrv.log</strong></em>: random log files which you will probably never need to look at</p>
<p><em><strong>mdrv_cmd.txt, options.txt</strong></em>: These text files contain commands and arguments for the script compiler and driver (mdrv) and are created dynamically, so you can safely delete them.</p>
<p><em><strong>output.txt</strong></em>: This one is important. This file contains all of the log messages generated during script playback. The contents of this file appear in the &#8220;Output Window&#8221; section of Vugen</p>
<p><em><strong>output.bak</strong></em>: A backup of the above file</p>
<p><em><strong>pre_cci.c</strong></em>: Output from the C pre-processor, which contains all of the functions used in your scrip, from all of the Acitons and header files.</p>
<p>In summary, you can delete: *.txt, *.log, *.idx, *.bak, result*, pre_cci.c, combined_*, *.ci<br />
Files Created During Recording</p>
<p>The &#8216;data&#8217; directory in your script directory contains the script recording data. I usually delete this so it doesn&#8217;t get checked into my version control system, but you may want to keep it around if you use the graphical scripting mode and/or you want to compare playback vs. recording. The auto-correlation feature makes use of this data, too, but I haven&#8217;t had much sucess using that feature.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Working with a firewall means that you can prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network, on specific port numbers.</p>
<p>In a regular LoadRunner load test scenario (not over a firewall), the Controller has direct access to the LoadRunner agents running on remote machines. This enables the Controller to connect directly to those machines.  When running Vusers or monitoring applications over a firewall, this direct connection is blocked by the firewall. The connection cannot be established by the Controller, because it does not have permissions to open the firewall.</p>
<p>LoadRunner solves this problem by using a communication configuration based on HTTPS or secured TCP/IP. This configuration uses the standard SSL port on the firewall (port 443).</p>
<p>A LoadRunner agent is installed on load generators running Vusers over a firewall, and on Monitor Over Firewall machines that monitor the servers that are located over a firewall. The agent communicates with the MI Listener machine through port 443 in the firewall.  The MI Listener is a component that serves as router between the Controller and the LoadRunner agent.</p>
<p>When the LoadRunner agent connects to the MI Listener, the MI Listener keeps a listing of the connection to the agent using a symbolic name that the agent passed to it. When the Controller connects to the MI Listener, it communicates to the MI Listener through port 50500.</p>
<p><strong>Setting Up your System to Use Firewalls:</strong></p>
<p>Basic Steps  Setting up your system to use firewalls involves the following stages of configuration:  Installation and initial configuration Running Vusers over a firewall  Installation and initial configuration</p>
<p>To enable over-firewall communication, ensure that you have installed the following LoadRunner components:</p>
<p>MI Listener Monitor Over Firewall component To perform initial configuration of your over-firewall system:</p>
<p>1 Configure your system according to TCP or HTTPS.</p>
<p>2 Modify your firewall settings to enable communication between the machines on either side of the firewall.</p>
<p>3 Configure the MI Listener.</p>
<p><strong>Configuring the MI Listener  To configure the MI Listener: </strong></p>
<p>1 Open incoming HTTPS service for port 443. The port settings are set by your system administrator.</p>
<p>2 Stop the LoadRunner agent on the MI Listener machine by right-clicking its icon in the system tray and selecting Close from the popup menu.</p>
<p>3 Run MI Listener Configuration from  Start &gt; Programs &gt; LoadRunner &gt; Advanced Settings, or run \launch_service\bin\MILsnConfig.exe.</p>
<p>4 Set each option as described in the following table:</p>
<p>5 Click OK to save your changes, Cancel to cancel them, or Use Defaults.</p>
<p>6 Restart the LoadRunner agent by double-clicking the shortcut on the desktop, or choosing Start &gt; Programs &gt; LoadRunner.</p>
<p>7 Make sure that port 443 is free on the MI Listener machine.</p>
<p><em><strong>Running Vusers over a firewall </strong></em></p>
<p>To set up your system to run Vusers over a firewall:</p>
<p>1 On each load generator machine that will be running over a firewall, configure the LoadRunner agent to communicate with the MI Listener.</p>
<p>2 Configure the Controller machine to recognize the load generator and MI Listener machines.</p>
<p><strong>Configuring LoadRunner Agents Over the Firewall</strong></p>
<p>1 Stop the LoadRunner agent by right-clicking its icon in the system tray and selecting Close.</p>
<p>2 Run Agent Configuration from Start &gt; Programs &gt; LoadRunner &gt; Advanced Settings, or run \launch_service\bin\AgentConfig.exe.</p>
<p>3 Select the Enable Firewall Agent check box, and then click Settings.     The Agent Configuration dialog box opens.</p>
<p>4 Set each option as described in “Agent Configuration Settings”</p>
<p>5 Click OK to save your changes, or Cancel to cancel them.</p>
<p>6 Restart the LoadRunner agent by double-clicking the shortcut on the desktop, or select Start &gt; Programs &gt; LoadRunner &gt; LoadRunner Agent Service/Process.</p>
<p>7 Check the connection status between the LoadRunner agent and the MI Listener.</p>
<p><strong>Configuring the Controller for Running over a Firewall</strong></p>
<p>1 Run the Controller from Start &gt; Programs &gt; LoadRunner &gt; Applications &gt; Controller and create a new scenario, or load an existing one.</p>
<p>2 Click Generators to display the Load Generators window. In the Name field, enter the symbolic name of the server. This is the same name that you entered in the Local Machine Key setting in the Agent Configuration.</p>
<p>3 Select the Load Generator, and click Details to display the Load Generator Information.</p>
<p>4 In the Security tab, enter the MI Listener machine&#8217;s name in the MI Listener field. This is the same name that you entered in the MI Listener Name setting of the Agent Configuration dialog box. In this example, the MI Listener is bunji.</p>
<p>5 In the Firewall Settings section, select one of the following options: ➤ Enable running Vusers over Firewall. To run Vusers over the firewall. ➤ Enable Monitoring over Firewall. To monitor Vusers over the firewall.</p>
<p>6 Click OK to return to the Load Generators dialog box.</p>
<p>7 Select the load generator and click Connect.  This will do all the setup required to run your test over the firewall&#8230;</p>
