Executing Scenario
You can run an entire scenario unattended, oryou can interactively select the Vuser Groupsand Vusers that you want to run.
When the scenario starts running, the Controller
first checks the scenario configurationinformation. Next, it invokes the applications thatyou selected to run with the scenario. Then, itdistributes each Vuser script to its designatedhost. When the Vusers are ready, they startexecuting their Vuser scripts.
While the scenario runs, you can pause and stopindividual Vuser Groups and Vusers.

Network Monitoring
Network configuration is a primary factor in theperformance of client/server and web systems. A poorlydesigned network can slow client activity to unacceptablelevels.
You can use LoadRunners Network monitoring todetermine which network segment is causing the delay.Once you determine this, you can concentrate onimproving the problematic segment.
In order to monitor a scenarios network activity, you
must enable Network monitoring and specify the path tomonitor, before running the scenario. The monitorrecords the network activity on all of the segments of thespecified path.
