SunVTS 5.0 User's Guide

What Is SunVTS?

SunVTSTM is the SunTM Validation Test Suite. SunVTS is a comprehensive diagnostic tool that tests and validates Sun hardware by verifying the connectivity and functionality of most hardware controllers and devices on Sun platforms.


Note -

SunVTS is only supported on the Sun SPARC platforms.


SunVTS can be tailored to run on various types of machines ranging from desktops to servers with modifiable test instances and processor affinity features.

SunVTS supports testing in both 32-bit and 64-bit SolarisTM operating environments, automatically determines the operating environment (32-bit or 64-bit), and initiates the appropriate tests.

Use SunVTS to validate a system during development, production, receiving inspection, troubleshooting, periodic maintenance, and system or subsystem stressing.

SunVTS has a sophisticated graphical user interface (UI) that provides test configuration and status monitoring. The user interface can run on one system to display the SunVTS testing of another system on the network. SunVTS also provides a TTY-mode interface for situations in which running a graphical UI is not possible.
