Open LoadRunner Analysis Graphs with Custom Granularity
Is there a way to set the Analysis Tool to open new graphs with a custom granularity? For example, LoadRunner may open all graphs with the granularity set to 300 seconds. Is there away to set it to 10 seconds?
Solution
Create a user-defined template for the Analysis tool. There is no way to set the same granularity to all graphs in Analysis once the result set has been processed. However as a work-around, create and use a user-defined template.
1. Open a result set in Analysis.
2. Open up all sets of graphs.
3. In each graph, set the granularity you want (i.e., 10 seconds).
4. Choose Tools -> Templates -> Save as template.
5. Clear the "Use automatic granularity" checkbox.
6. Select the "Automatically set to new result" checkbox. As a result, each new result set will be opened with the above graphs and granularity desired, with the exception of the Throughput graph. For the Throughput graph, the minimum granularity is 5 seconds by the product design. The reason for it is to avoid too much overhead.
If you would like to set it to a lower value (not recommended due to overhead), here's what you can do (before you run your scenario):
Note: Please back up your files before any modification.
1. Open the default.cfg file of the script using a word editor. In the [WEB] section add one more line:
[WEB]
WebGraphsAggregation=n where n is the number of seconds for graph aggregation.
2. Open throughput.def in the
[Granularity]
Dimension=Scenario Elapsed Time
;BaseGranularityUIName=Throughput
3 Open Result0_Graph2.def in
[Granularity]
Dimension=Scenario Elapsed Time
;BaseGranularityUIName=Throughput
4. Save the changes and rerun your scenario.
