SunVTS software has a sophisticated graphical user interface (GUI) that provides
test configuration and status monitoring. The user interface can be run on one
system to display the SunVTS testing of another system on the network. SunVTS
software also provides a TTY-mode interface for situations in which running a GUI
is not possible.

Diagnosing Server Problems With the Bootable
Diagnostics CD
SunVTS 6.4 or later software is preinstalled on your server. The server is also
shipped with the Bootable Diagnostics CD. This CD is designed so that the server
will boot from the CD. This CD boots and starts SunVTS software. Diagnostic tests
run and write output to log files that the service technician can use to determine the
problem with the server.
Requirements
■ To use the diagnostics CD you must have a keyboard, mouse, and monitor
attached to the server on which you are performing diagnostics, or available
through a remote KVM.
