The connection process has two stages. First, you connect Analysis to a local or remote Performance Center Web server. This server handles the connections between Analysis and the Performance Center project. You connect to Performance Center from the Configure Performance Center Connection dialog box.

Next, you choose the Performance Center project, load test, and run folder from or to which you want Analysis to download or upload files.

Please note that performance center projects are password protected, so you must provide a user name and a password.

To connect Analysis to Performance Center, you may follow the below steps:

• In Analysis, choose Tools > Performance Center Connection. The Configure Performance Center Connection dialog box opens.
• In the URL box, type the URL address of the Web server on which Performance Center is installed. The URL address should be in the format: http://<Performance_Center_server_name>/loadtest
  Enter your user name and password. Contact your HP Performance Center administrator if you need assistance. To automate the login process, select Remember user name and password. The specified username and password are saved to the registry, and displayed each time you open this dialog box. To automatically open the connection to the Performance Center server when you start Analysis, select Auto connect on start. Analysis attempts to connect to Performance Center using the configuration information displayed.
• Click Connect to connect to Performance Center. The Performance Center Connection dialog box displays the connection status. That is, once the connection is established, all the fields are displayed in read-only format, and the Connect button changes to Disconnect. If you want to disconnect Analysis from Performance Center, click Disconnect. Note: You cannot be connected to Performance Center and Test Director at the same time.
