Configuration

 Top

First of all, you should be able to answer the following questions:

  • What are the indicators I want to collect (response time, scoreboard, system indicators) ?
  • Where do I want to store the results (log, database, real-time program) ?
  • What are the URIs I want to analyze (whole site, subdirs, isolated pages...) ?

Then you can configure mod_benchmark accordingly, using the appropriate directives:
