Oracle VTS Logs

Language:

In most cases, faults in the hardware are detected and managed by the system (the hardware plus operating system) and not by the test. The software and its tests are all user-level applications, running on top of the operating system. Any error or failure that is detected and managed by the system might not be visible to the tests. But the occurrence of such errors or failures are logged by the system. Therefore, you must always check the following log files after a run of the testing session. These log files identify any error or failure that might have occurred.

Oracle VTS software supports the following logs.

Log	Description
Test Information log	Contains informative messages that are generated when you start and stop the Oracle VTS test sessions. The log file path name is `/var/sunvts/logs/sunvts.info`. This file is not created until an Oracle VTS test session runs.
Test Error log	Contains time-stamped Oracle VTS test error messages. The log file path name is `/var/sunvts/logs/sunvts.err`. This file is not created until an Oracle VTS test failure occurs.
VTSK Error log	Contains time-stamped Oracle VTS kernel and Oracle VTS probe error messages. Oracle VTS kernel errors relate to running Oracle VTS, and not to testing of devices. The log file path name is `/var/sunvts/logs/vtsk.err`. This file is not created until Oracle VTS reports an Oracle VTS kernel error.
Test Verbose log	Verbose messages are the test progression informative messages. The log file path name is `/var/sunvts/logs/sunvts.verbose`. These messages are logged only when the verbose mode is enabled and help you continuously monitor what is happening during the testing.
Report log	A report of the Oracle VTS test session logged using the `vtsreportgenerate` utility. The log file path name is`/var/sunvts/logs/sunvts.rpt`.
Test Event log	Contains test start messages. Every test started by Oracle VTS infrastructure logs its start message in the `sunvts.event` file, which has the start time and version of the test binary. The log path name is `/var/sunvts/logs/sunvts.event`.
