Argument 

Explanation 

mode=type

Specifies which mode of the vmemtest you want to run; you can choose between page mode, which tells the write/read memory test to proceed one system memory page at a time, and regular, which valloc's the entire assigned memory which is read and compared, one long word at a time.

reserve=number

Specifies the amount of Mbytes of virtual memory to reserve in addition to the default amount. 

amount=number

Specifies the number of Mbytes of memory to be tested instead of the default amount. 

bdinfo=number

Provides the board number information for all the CPU/memory boards in the system. For example, if board 0 and board 5 have memory, then the bdinfo=33 (2**5+2**0).

cerr=number

Specifies the maximum number of contiguous errors to be dumped when a memory error occurs. 


Note -

64-bit tests are located in the sparcv9 subdirectory: /opt/SUNWvts/bin/sparcv9/testname. If a test is not present in this directory, then it may only be available as a 32-bit test. For more information refer to "32-Bit and 64-Bit Tests".
