Hello,
Do you know the kernel parameter to define the limit of a file in hp 11.11 ?

Yes a max size for a file

Max file size is a limit of the OS and the file system.

2GB for file systems without the large files option set, 2TB or something like that for those with.

man fsadm for more info

In the kernel?
Not that I can think of
But if your having an issue du to size its more specifically the way you creted the file system, did you activate or enable largefiles? which removes the 2GB limitations

All the best
