SharePoint moving list items between lists

Meena — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 15:41:38 +0000

When moving items within SharePoint lists in Windows SharePoint Services 2007 sites, the items tend to be deleted and recreated in the new list folder. So when trying to organize and making bulk moves, make sure to empty the recycle bin after the move is completed. This issue actually ate up on our SharePoint Quota within our network.

Performance of HP LoadRunner Agent Machines

Meena — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 13:57:05 +0000

During one of our tests the application caused the LoadRunner agent machines to run at full CPU. The agent machine CPUs status is diplayed on the HP LoadRunner Controller as below. If the CPU of the agents are above normal then the results of the tests are sure to be inaccurate.

The below image shows how the CPU of generators are within the safe limits of CPU usage before starting the test.

Below you see the CPU of the agents machine marked in Red as they cross 100% usage. This definitely makes the response times received during the load test to be much higher and hence the wrong results. So watch out for these signals during testing.

LoadRunner and Flex applications - II

Meena — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 14:34:16 +0000

This is a follow up of the previous posting about LoadRunner and Flex applications. The issue with LoadRunner interfereing with the Flex application during recording was solved. It had been an issue with the recording engine.

Two solutions were offered by HP and the first one worked fine.

Changing the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Mercury Interactive\LoadRunner\Protocols\HTTP\Analyzer in the registry and set AddNoCacheHeaderToHtml to 0.

The second solution offerred was to go under recording options –> Network –> Port Mapping –> set Capture Level to “WinINet level data”.
