Arg list too long

I have an older C110 running HP-UX 9.05 and when a developer attempts to run a build he gets the following error.

mwmake[1]: execve: /usr/bin/ar: Arg list too long
mwmake[1]: *** [run/ux10/libDatabase.a] Error 127
mwmake[1]: Leaving directory `/export/home/kfhender/borg5/Database/Src'
gmake: *** [common_libs] Error 2

I researched this and it appears I need to rebuild the kernel and set the following parameter.

large_nc_args_enabled = 1

My question is "How do I rebuild the kernel and set this parameter?" I looked in SAM at the configurable parameters and did not see this one.

Thanks for the help!!

Hi Kris:

I believe that this tunable appeared in 10.x.

Re: Arg list too long

Kris,
I confirm James idea, this only appeared with 10.20 by installing the patch PHKL_16751.
