Validation Testing
2. The script attaches to the first target server, which uses the target server back
end communication link to communicate with Target 0 through the target
agent. If serial communication is required, a channel from ttya (UNIX) or com1
(Windows) to Target 0’s /tyCo/0 or any other port that is configured as console
is opened via the first serial line.
3. The script attaches to the second target server, which uses the target server
back end communication link to communicate with Target 1 through the target
agent. If serial communication is required, a channel from ttyb (UNIX) or com2
(Windows) to Target 1’s /tyCo/0 or any other port that is configured as console
is opened via the second serial line.
4. When console interaction with the target is required, the script communicates
with each target by sending WTX or WindSh commands and reading the
console output.

the required hardware configuration
installing the BSP VTS
configuring the system: the host, the target, VxWorks, and the BSP VTS itself
Read this section in conjunction with Tornado User’s Guide: Setup and Startup.
7.3.1 Hardware Setup
Bus-full
The BSP VTS assumes a minimum target system setup. This can be either a bus-full
environment (traditional) or a standalone configuration. For some tests, such as
the backplane tests, a second CPU board is required.
Figure 7-3 shows a typical bus-full configuration, which consists of the following:
Chassis
A card cage with backplane, typically a VMEbus, and a power supply.
