hi,

Did you make any kernel modifications (vmunix), but didn't reboot the box??

One possible reason for the message you showed is the discrepancy between the kernel with which the system was booted and the existing kernel file. (include relate files like /stand/system, dlkm ..)

Hi,
It means that the result of
the contents of /stand/vmunix not matching what /dev/kmem
or the kernel that is loaded into memory.

I guess any kernel parameter was changed without rebooting.
do
#cd /stand
#ll (to check the file size of the kernel(hpux)
