A user is required to provide an e-mail address during installation of Windows Media Load Simulator. The load simulator cannot be installed without this information. This installation requirement provides a method for the user to identify themselves during the testing process; however, the e-mail address is not guaranteed to be correct.
If you enable logging for unicast clients on the Windows Media server while it is in service, this e-mail address will appear in the cs-uri-stem field in the unicast client information log when the user runs Windows Media Load Simulator against the server. This e-mail address appears in the log entries that indicate the beginning of a load test, for example:
cs-uri-stem
mms://154.53.219.121/wmload_client&email=user@company.com&version=4.0
&guid=guid_numberThe following information is present in the cs-uri-stem entry.
The e-mail address entered during installation of the Windows Media Load Simulator that is load-testing the server. The e-mail address is not guaranteed to be correct.
The version of Windows Media Load Simulator.
Globally unique identifier (GUID) generated by Windows Media Load Simulator. Another Windows Media Load Simulator running simultaneously on the same client machine will generate a different GUID.
For more information about logging unicast client information on the Windows Media server, see Logging unicast client information in the online help for Windows Media Administrator.
