Web monitoring sessions and cookies

[skaze]

Might be a stupid question but is Zabbix's use of libcurl such that for a web scenario, the steps will be using the same cookie store (curl -b)? And thus maintaining sessions across multiple calls?

Thanks!

All session cookies are preserved within all steps of single WEB scenario.

Thanks Alexei,

May ask what you think about allowing the administrator to choose between allowing the session scope to persist across all executions of the scenario or be reset on each execution (i.e. the current behaviour)?

We understand that the most commonly wanted behaviour is the one you already provide and that this is especially true for the classic 'login, test page, logout' type scenarios but for us we could save 40 odd sessions if could persistent cookies across each scenario executions.

Maybe a feature request for a future 1.4.x release?

Thanks.

John

ps. Zabbix rocks!

Is this something that is going to be addressed?

Would be nice to have this option, as all the additional sessions created really play havoc on trying to estimate site load.
