How to Exercise the System Using SunVTS Software

What to Do

You can run SunVTS locally or remotely. The following procedure assumes you will test your Sun Fire 280R server by running a SunVTS session from a remote machine using the SunVTS graphical interface. For information about SunVTS interfaces and options, see the SunVTS User’s Guide.

You will need root access to run SunVTS tests.

1.Use the xhost command to give the remote server access to your system.

On the machine from which you will be running the SunVTS graphical interface, type:

#/usr/openwin/bin/xhost + remote_hostname

Substitute the name of the Sun Fire 280R server for remote_hostname.

2.Log in to the remote machine as superuser (root).

3.Check whether SunVTS software is loaded on your system.

SunVTS software is an optional package that may or may not have been loaded when your system software was installed. For more information, see “How to Check Whether SunVTS Software Is Installed” on page 198.
