Enable response time breakdown collection on Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008

Microsoft Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 include security features that are not in previous versions of Windows. You must adjust the security settings of these operating systems to collect response time breakdown data. The default security settings do not allow response time breakdown collection. By default, the firewall blocks inbound connection attempts.

If you enable response time breakdown collection for a test and the remote computers are not running the data collection infrastructure, the following error is displayed:

IWAY0159E The data collection infrastructure does not appear to be running on hostname.

Create an inbound connection rule to allow the Agent Controller to connect to the computer
