The following table defines the standard SunVTS command-line arguments:

Table 1-3 Standard Command-Line Arguments

Argument 

Description 

-s

Runs a test as though it were invoked from the SunVTS kernel (vtsk). 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 with the vtsui.online command. 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. 

-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.
