Oracle VTS is a validation test suite that you can use to test this server. The Oracle VTS software provides multiple diagnostic hardware tests that verify the connectivity and functionality of most hardware controllers and devices for this server. The software provides these kinds of test categories:
Audio
Communication (serial and parallel)
Graphic and video
Memory
Network
Peripherals (hard drives, CD-DVD devices, and printers)
Processor
Storage
Use the Oracle VTS software to validate a system during development, production, receiving inspection, troubleshooting, periodic maintenance, and system or subsystem stressing.
You can run the Oracle VTS software through a web browser, a terminal interface, or a CLI.
You can run tests in a variety of modes for online and offline testing.
The Oracle VTS software also provides a choice of security mechanisms.
The Oracle VTS software is provided on the preinstalled Oracle Solaris OS that shipped with the server, however, Oracle VTS might not be installed.
