SunVTS Diagnostic Software
The SunVTS software executes multiple diagnostic hardware tests from a single user
interface and is used to verify the configuration and functionality of most hardware
controllers and devices. The SunVTS software operates primarily from a graphical
user interface, enabling test parameters to be set quickly and easily while a
diagnostic test operation is being performed.
Note –
SunVTS diagnostic software is not currently available for Solaris x86
Operating Systems.
The SunVTS
nettest
diagnostic can be used to test all of the networking interfaces
on the system, including the interfaces on the adapter.
To use the
nettest
diagnostic, you must have the SunVTS software installed on
your system. Refer to your Solaris documentation for installation instructions.
Refer to the SunVTS documentation (listed in
) for instructions on how to
run and monitor the
nettest
diagnostic. These SunVTS documents are available
