Distributed JMeter tests with per-slave CSV datasets

Question
I'd like to run a distrubuted JMeter test on our site, following the manual. My tests are parametrized via a CSV DataSet configuration element to simulate diffent users. The question is now: Will JMeter use the same DataSet for each slave, or can I somehow configure each slave with its own dataset? If the first is the case, slaves will steal each other's session which is of course undesired.
Solution
Jmeter use local CSV fiels in distributed mode. So you just place different files on each slave and it works. Nothing special to do.
OTHER TIPS
You can choose the CSV Data behaviour with the Sharing mode option. Description of each option detailed in:
