Filtering User Visits Dashlet
Hi,
I am trying to find out an easy way of filtering the User Experience Visits Dashlets by host or agent.
So far I cannot find out how I can do this, I just want to see the user experience on an individual host/agent. I have found out that we can filter by Header Tags but the values are pre-set and I cannot define custom header tags to filter (e.g. server in header tags).
Just so that I fully understand your use case. You have a web application with multiple load-balanced web servers and you want to know what the real end user experience is for each individual host? Does this also mean that you have sticky sessions?
Or do you have different web sites (different host names, e.g: www.xyz.com and www.abc.com) and you want to figure out User Experience by that host name?
So yes, we have multiple load-balanced web servers and we would like to know the user experience on each host, we do use sticky sessions.
The host name is exactly the same, otherwise we could of identified by "Application".
Hi Jamie,
Most load-balancer will add a http header. If this is true for your setup, then you can use this header for a splitting business transaction.

Thank you for that reply, I assume I would have to create a new measure with the correct Header Field e.g. ServerName?
Yes - and this header value can then be used in a BT as splitting value! Please be sure to capture the header on the relevant agent. Not all http-headers are captured by default - so you have to adjust the sensor (servlet, ASP.net or web server) configuration.
Thank you very much for your help!
