# LoadRunnerEnteprise Operator

This page introduces the **LoadRunnerEnterprise** operator, a workflow operator that allows piloting performance tests on a target system by leveraging Micro Focus LoadRunner Enterprise (formerly known as Performance Center).

## Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

This section provides the minimum requirements that you should meet to use this operator.

### Supported versions <a href="#supported-versions" id="supported-versions"></a>

* Micro Focus Performance Center 12.60 or 12.63
* LoadRunner Enterprise 2020 SP3

## Configuration options <a href="#configuration-options" id="configuration-options"></a>

When you define a task that uses the LoadRunnerEnterprise operator you should specify some configuration information to allow the operator to connect to LoadRunner Enterprise and execute a provided test scenario.

You can specify configuration information within the `arguments` that are part of a task in the YAML of the definition of a workflow.

You can avoid specifying each configuration information at the task level, by including a `component` property with the name of a component; in this way, the operator will take any configuration information from the properties of the referenced component

## Operator arguments <a href="#configuration-options-reference" id="configuration-options-reference"></a>

This table reports the configuration reference for the `arguments` section
