Question & Answer
Question
You shutdown the monitored application while running RPT HTTP scripts. The RPT script response time increases dramatically, and there is no indication in the TEP that anything is wrong. How do you raise alerts that the application is down?
Answer
You are observing the default behavior of Rational Performance Tester (RPT) scripts.
To raise alerts in the Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP), you need to include verification points in your RPT script, and you need to add situations to raise appropriate alerts in the TEP.
