Abnormal big number of user session generated when running script under vuser

[Jonathan12345]

Hi, all

I have been using the HTML protocol to record my script on the SAP portal webdynpro application. After I do all the correlation, I was able to replay it in vugen. However, when I simulate a run of let's say 5 vusers, I noticed that almost 200 SAP sessions were connected when all the steps are done. No failure though.

It almost looks like each step in the script is creating an SAP user session(from SM04/AL08) which is not right. Of course, if I only run the SAP application without LR, one user session is created. I am pretty sure I am not the only one seeing this issue. Please advise the fix for this issue.

Thanks,

Jonathan.

Could you replay once in VuGen and check the SAP sesssion? How many SAP sessions are made if we replay with VuGen?

Hi, Bach

If I run the script directly in vugen, only one user session is there. If I run with simulated vuser in the controller, many user sessions are created almost with each step.

Please advise.

Thanks,

Jonathan.

Hi,

Where did you place the function to terminate SAP session in the script? Action or Vuser_end?

When run in Controller, you run the script with number of vusers: 'untill completion' or 'duration'?

Load generator run as process or thread? Please confirm.

Thanks and Regards,

Chau

Hi, Chau.

Here is the option I put in:

Do you see an issue?

By the way, on the run-time settings, I deselect the "simulate a new user on each iteration" and it did not fix the problem.

Thanks,

Could you tell me where did you put the sript to log out or terminate SAP session?

If you put it in vuser_end, then run the test with duration, the action part will be repeated and the session will be increased.
