-e

Disables the connection permission checking feature 

-f logfile_directory*

Specifies an alternative logfile directory other than the default directory /var/opt/SUNWvts/logs

-h hostname

Starts the user interface (vtsui or vtstty) on the local machine and tries to connect to the SunVTS kernel (vtsk) of the specified host machine. If hostname is the same hostname of the machine on which the tests are being run, sunvts starts the SunVTS kernel (vtsk). If vtsk is already running on the test system, the sunvts command ignores the -o, -f, -q, -p, and -s options

-l

Starts the OPEN LOOK user interface 

-o options_file

Starts the SunVTS kernel with the test options loaded from the options_file; these options are saved by the user interface and are stored in the /var/opt/SUNWvts/options directory

-p

Starts the SunVTS kernel, but does not probe the test system's devices 

-q

Automatically quits both the SunVTS kernel and the user interface when testing stops 

-s

Automatically starts testing a selected group of tests; the flag must be used with the -o options_file flag

-t

Starts vtstty, a TTY-based program, instead of a GUI. If you do not specify this option and the system is running CDE, sunvts starts vtsui; or, if the system is running OPEN LOOK, sunvts starts vtsui.ol

-v

Displays version information from the SunVTS kernel and GUI 

* If the -f argument is exercised when running SyMON, a logfile directory cannot be created.
