Installing SunVTS

By default, SunVTS is not installed on the Sun Fire V100 server. SunVTS is distributed via the Software Supplement for the Solaris Operating Environment CD. See the Sun Hardware Platform Guide for details. The default directory to use when you install SunVTS software is /opt/SUNWvts.

Using SunVTS Software

To test a Sun Fire V100 server by running a SunVTS session from a workstation using the SunVTS graphical user interface, follow the procedure below.

1.Use the xhost command to give the remote server access to the local display.

Type:

#/usr/openwin/bin/xhost + remote_hostname

2.Remotely log in to the server as superuser or root.

3.Type:

#cd /opt/SUNWvts/bin

#./sunvts -display local_hostname:0

Where local_hostname is the name of the workstation you are using.

Note The directory /opt/SUNWvts/bin is the default directory for SunVTS software. If you have the software installed in a different directory, use that path instead.

When you start SunVTS software, the SunVTS kernel probes the test system devices and displays the results on the Test Selection panel. There is an associated SunVTS test for each hardware device on your system.
