Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Stress Testing
We have just finished developing our e-commerce site.
We will be doing some stress testing next week.
Someone (maybe from the hosting site) has to configure
the Mercury software to simulate the transactions, and
I will have to configure the Oracle Enterprise Manager
to monitor the database.
Question:
1. I never used or saw this Mercury Software that
people are talking about. Is there anything I need to
know about it, other than it will be simulating
transactions?
2. I have never done stress testing before. What do I need to monitor? I am thinking I could set up alerts and thresholds before the testing actually begin. Would I be able to do index usage monitoring?
3. Is The Enterprise Manager 2.1.0 with all its diagnostic tools sufficient enough to do monitoring of stress testing?
This is Oracle 8.1.6 on Solaris 2.7, and Enterprise Manager 2.1
Thanks in advance
Gillian
