Gathering information when monitoring systems costs money. It uses system capacity and depending on the implementation possible extra network traffic. Per system it needs to be decided which minimum information needs to be monitored. If issues occur during testing that require more monitoring, information-dedicated test runs can be planned with extended monitoring settings.
Analysis will have to take the possible impact of performance monitoring into account and settings have to be restored for the continuation of regular testing.
