2.1 SunVTS Description
The SunVTS software executes multiple diagnostic hardware tests from a single user
interface. SunVTS verifies the configuration, functionality, and reliability of most
hardware controllers and devices.
The SunVTS software can be used in both the Common Desktop Environment (CDE)
and the OPEN LOOK graphical user interface (GUI) environments, or from a TTY
interface.
Within the CDE and OPEN LOOK GUI environments, test parameters can be set
quickly and easily by pointing and clicking a mouse button.
With a TTY interface, the SunVTS software is used from a terminal or modem
attached to a serial port. Data is input through the keyboard, rather than with a
mouse, and only one screen of information is displayed at a time.
