I am trying to install os using bootsys -a. Installation is fine but it picks up default hardware config.I want to use a custom hardware configuration. save_config gives me correct configuration file but i dont know how to use this config file with bootsys -a.I dont want to use ignite GUI, I am trying to write a script which will automate HP-UX installation.

The network way with instl_adm is the solution for you.
Don't hesitate to ask if you want more details.

How can I specify custom file system size.
for ex: /stand is currentl 512MB and '/' 1024 I want to specify for next installation 1024MB for stand and 2048 for '/'

Simple : just run the
save_config -f /tmp/config.my_server
command on the client, to generate your configuration.
Then modify this file with growing / and /stand, and put it inside your ignite server configuration (INDEX file).
