NAME

vtsk - SunVTS diagnostic kernel

SYNOPSIS

vtsk [ -epqsv ] [ -o options_file ] [ -f logfile_directory ]

AVAILABILITY

SUNWvts

DESCRIPTION

The vtsk command starts up the SunVTS diagnostic kernel as a background process. There can only be one copy of vtsk running at a time. Only the superuser can execute this command.

Normally, vtsk is automatically started up by the sunvts (1M) command if it is not already running. vtsk will also be invoked by inetd (1M) when there is a connection request from vtsui or vtsui.ol. In that case, the security file, .sunvts_sec, will be checked for the permission before running vtsk on the target host specified by vtsui(1M) or vtsui.ol(1M).
