3.3SunVTS Software

Note – The Sun Validation Test Suite (SunVTS software) runs on the Solaris OS only. There are similar test suites available for the Linux operating systems.

The SunVTS software is a comprehensive software suite that tests and validates the Sun Netra CP3220 blade server by verifying the configuration and function of most hardware controllers and devices on the blade server.

SunVTS software is used to validate a system during development, production, inspection, troubleshooting, periodic maintenance, and system or subsystem stressing. SunVTS software can be tailored to run on various types of machines, ranging from desktops to servers with modifiable test instances and processor affinity features.

You can perform high-level system testing by using the appropriate version of SunVTS software. For detailed information on SunVTS software support and downloads, refer to the following web site:

You will be prompted for your Sun Online Account name and password.

Ensure that the SunVTS software version is compatible with the Solaris OS being used. You can find information about the SunVTS software version installed on your system by viewing the content of the .version file:

#cat /opt/SUNWvts/bin/.version

To obtain SunVTS documentation, contact your local Customer Service representative, field applications engineer, or system support engineer.

Note – For security reasons, only a superuser is permitted to run SunVTS software. Installation and starting instructions are included with the software when it is downloaded.
