VCS - control multiple simulation runs

Hi,

I m currently using VCS for functional simulation. My testbench toplevel contains a parameter for a data input file that should be streamed into my model under test. To control this I use 'vcs -gfile foo.dat' to overwrite the parameter at compile time.

Now I want to run my simulation with several input files (up to 20 inputs files) and monitor the code coverage over all runs.

For Instance:

Run 1 with "file1.dat" => 10% coverage reached
Run 2 with "file2.dat" => 20% coverage reached
Run 3 with .....

Is it possible to run that automatically? I read something about the Verification Plan in VCS, is that a good tool/design flow for that? Any hints are highly appreciated. Thanks!
