SunVTS 3.0 Test Reference Manual

Standard Command Line Arguments

The following table defines the standard SunVTS command line arguments:

Table 1-3 Standard Command-line Arguments


Argument	Definition
`-s`	Run a test as though it were invoked from the SunVTS kernel (`vtsk`). This causes the test to send output to an RPC port that the SunVTS kernel is using. The default is to send the output to `stdout` or `stderr`.
`-c`	Enables a core image of the test process to be created in the current working directory upon receipt of certain signals, otherwise those signals are caught and handled to prevent a core from being generated. The default is to disable the creation of a core image.
`-r`	Enables run on error so that when an error occurs, the test continues with the next test sequence instead of exiting. The default is false.
`-u`	Displays command line usage information.
`-v`	Runs the test in Verbose mode and displays messages with more detailed information about the testing process. The default is false.
`-d`	Runs the test in debug mode and displays messages to help programmers debug their test code. The default is false.
`-t`	Runs the test in test Trace mode and displays messages that track function calls and sequences currently in use by the test code. The default is false.
`-e`	Runs the test in Stress Mode by increasing the system load. The default is false.
`-l`	Runs the test in Online Functional mode. This is the same mode that tests run in when executed through SyMON. It is a non-intrusive version that will not significantly affect other applications. See the note below. The default is true.
`-n`	Runs the test in Connection Mode. See the note below.The default is false.
`-f`	Runs the test in full Functional test mode. This mode assumes that the test has complete control of the device under test. See the note below. The default is false.
`-i` `number`	Defines the number of instances for scalable tests.
`-p` `number`	Defines the number of passes.
`-w` `number`	For scalable tests, defines to which instance the test is assigned.
`-o`	Used to indicate that the options and arguments that follow are test specific. Note - separate each test specific argument by commas, with no space after each comma.

Note -

If you choose to specify a test mode with the l, n, or f option, specify only one option at a time because only one test mode can be selected at a time.
