I have followed the necessary instructions of setting up a distributed JMeter Testing environment with JMeter 4.0.
I have one master and one slave. Both are on the same subnet and I have (whether I should have or not) opened both inward and outward firewall ports for 1099 (for RMI) and 23 on both the master and slave. I could not shut down all the firewall as there is some 'group'policy at my workplace.
I have the necessary rmi_keystore.jks file created with the name as 'rmi' created and their paths referenced correctly in the properties file. I have put them both in the jmeter\bin directories for both slave and master. Hence, it starts the slave object properly.
When I start the master I wait for a bit and eventually get the following:
Remote engines have been started Waiting for possible Shutdown/StopTestNow/Heapdump message on port 4445 c:\XXX\>jmeter -n -t YYY.jmx -r -l ZZZ.jtl -e -o Result Creating summariser <summary> Created the tree successfully using YYY.jmx Configuring remote engine: AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA Starting remote engines Starting the test @ Fri May 18 17:29:19 BST 2018 (xxxxxxxxxxxxx) Error in rconfigure() method java.rmi.ConnectException: Connection refused to host: AAA.AAA.AAA.AAA; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect Remote engines have been started Waiting for possible Shutdown/StopTestNow/Heapdump message on port 4445
I am not quite sure what else to do as I have followed the necessary instructions hence would really appreciate some help? Thanks.
