Note: If the script is checkout and we click on save button it will save in Performance center. Click on refresh button to reflect the changes in PC.

Problem in uploading script on PC

If you have any problem in uploading script or any other unusal behaviour on PC then do following steps:

• Launch Performance center URL
• Login Lab management
• Check system health under Performance center
• Check the Task progress: It should be Succeeded mode
• If it is not then check the IP address of PC servers and cross verify with the PCServer IP
• Sometime need to re-zip the script and upload again.
• Sometime need to upload the script on performance center  from Vugen by Checkin process.
