There is no separate version number for Kernel.
HP-UX version along with patch level should
be enough. Could you explain why you need this?

Application vendor asked some information (etc. OS version, kernel versionâ ¦..)

Run the following:

# swlist| grep "HPUXBase"
HPUXBase64 B.11.11 HP-UX 64-bit Base OS
HPUXBaseAux B.11.11.0109 HP-UX Base OS Auxiliary

This gives the OS version as HP-UX 11.11 (aka
HP-UX 11i, v1) and it is 0901 (Sept 2001) release.

The same command on my HP-UX 11.23 (aka
HP-UX 11i, v2) box gives the following output:

# swlist|grep HPUXBase
HPUXBaseAux B.11.23.0409 HP-UX Base OS Auxiliary
HPUXBaseOS B.11.23 HP-UX Base OS

This means, it's a HP-UX 11.23 0409 (Sept 2004)
release.

I think the release date (Sept 2004 in last case)
is what your vendor means when (s)he is asking
about the kernel version.
