Log in

This section describes how to log in to OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering.

  1. Open your web browser and type the server URL in the following format: http://<server_name>/loadtest

    The Login window opens.

    Note:  

    • Contact your system administrator if you do not have the correct URL.

    • If your system was configured with external authentication (SSO), you are redirected to the select domain and project window. For details, see SSO authentication.

    • If more than one server is installed in your system together with a load balancer, access the machine by entering the load balancer's URL. Alternatively, you can also enter the server's defined internal URL.

    • When SSL is terminated on a load balancer, you may need to set the secure flags on session cookies. For details, see Install.

  2. Enter the user name and password assigned to you by your site administrator and click Authenticate.

    If you are logging in using your internal password, you can reset the password by clicking Forgot or want to change password (not available when using LDAP or SSO authentication).

  3. In the Domain and Project window, select a domain and project. The window shows the last domain and project accessed by the current user.

    Note: The system administrator can control user access to projects by defining user roles, and by indicating the types of tasks each user role can perform according to permission levels. For details, see Assign project roles and permissions to users.

  4. Select the language for the user interface.

    The multilingual user interface, or MLU, provides support for multiple languages on a single instance of OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering without having to install language packs.
