Dear FTP Denied,
Use kctune to change kernel parameter values in HPUX (kmtune is a wrapper and it in turns call kctune).

kctune parameter=value

For e.g.
Say to change the maximum size of data segment,

# kctune maxdsiz=1073741824
WARNING: The automatic 'backup' configuration currently contains the
configuration that was in use before the last reboot of this
system.
==> Do you wish to update it to contain the current configuration
before making the requested change? y
* The automatic 'backup' configuration has been updated.
* The requested changes have been applied to the currently
running system.
Tunable Value Expression Changes
maxdsiz (before) 1073741822 1073741822 Immed
(now) 1073741824 1073741824

Regards,
Muru

....and which parameter??
Because some parameter required rebuilding of the kernel.
Also if you can reboot the server,make changes in /stand/system file and rebuild the kernel.
Don't forget to keep a backup of current system file and /stand/vmunix

type SAM on the prompt as root, you will get a easy to use menu.
