VTS has been around for many years, although may have been more widely deployed on SPARC hardware. VTS is Sun Services' tool of choice when 'validating' hardware (V_alidation T_est S_uite). Manufacturing also use the tool suite extensively to burn in hardware on their floor before shipping. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
