Monitoring other web servers

Apache monitoring statistics

• Using the HTTP monitor, NeoLoad can retrieve statistics for any system or server.
• You can simply create a page on your server to return the required statistics. NeoLoad will then use the created page to query your web server regularly and monitor these counters.
• For instance, you can create a JSP, PHP or ASP page returning some performance counters of the application server, and then analyze how your server handles the load while the test is running.
