Datapool in Test Script dialog box

5. Take one of these actions:
­
Click Create to define and populate the new datapool.
If the datapool you are trying to create already exists, the Create button does
not appear in the dialog box. Instead, the Edit Specification button appears,
allowing you to edit datapool column definitions, and the Edit Existing
Data button appears, allowing you to edit datapool values.
­
Click Close if you do not want to define and populate a datapool at this time.
6. If you clicked Create in the previous step, continue by following the
instructions in the section Step 2. Defining Datapool Columns and Generating the
Data
on page 10-19.
Here is how the Configure Datapool in Test Script dialog box maps to the
DATAPOOL_CONFIG
section of a script:
For more information about the parts of the
DATAPOOL_CONFIG
section of a
script, see the description of
DATAPOOL_CONFIG
in the VU Language Reference.
Because Obey Usage is selected and the Persistent
check box is not checked, no other flag is used.
These tables match row for
row and column for column.
NOTE: Typically, a script has just one
DATAPOOL_CONFIG
section. If a script
has multiple
DATAPOOL_CONFIG
sections (for example, to accommodate a
script that accesses multiple databases and servers), the Configure Datapool in
Test Script dialog box accesses the first one. To edit the others, you must edit the
script directly.
