Response Time
There is an application which is having a response time of 2.5 seconds. After a minor hotfix, the response time increased to 4 seconds. If you need to provide a report to the client. What is the analysis you make in such a situation?

Agreed on giving two different set of results, with and without the hotfix.? You can also do a verification run and advise the user the impact on performance after the hotfix is been implemented.? This goes back to what is the intention of the report to the user.-papayamilkshake

It would be good if you provide both the response time with and with out the Hotfix.This would be a comparision and the client can think whether to include that Hotfix or not.

Loadrunner cannot monitor, but the component in Loadrunner namely controller helps ur query.
You need to have proper licenses for monitoring the servers be it either web, app or db server.
Default u can monitor windows resources u do not need to have any license for this. If perfmon is available in your workstation. This feature in controller calls the perfmon dll and counters can be added to monitor the behavior of the whatever windows workstation that is needed.
Anyway go through the manual.

Dynamic values important because, everytime a web request goes to server comes back, certain values in the session are changed by the server dynamically. If we have used correlation for those values, that will take care of them automatically.
