The above two messages are occuring on your machine you need to do the following to fix it:

cp /stand/system /stand/system.prev

cp /stand/vmunix /stand/vmunix.prev

cp -Rp /stand/dlkm /stand/dlkm.vmunix.prev

cd /stand/build

/usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -v -s system

mk_kernel -s system

mv /stand/build/system /stand/system

kmupdate /stand/build/vmunix_test

shutdown -ry 0

Thanks

ALso something from the Documents.

Problem Description
I have recently made changes to the kernel. Now I am receiving the =
following messages in dmesg and syslog.log:
WARNING: modpath: DLKM is not initialized

What is the cause of this problem and how can it be corrected?

Configuration Info
Operating System - HP-UX
Version - 11.0
Hardware System - HP 9000
Series - K450
Solution
Normally this error indicates that the current version of the kernel =
does not match the current version of the symbol table symtab in =
/stand/dlkm.

This can be verified with the following command:

echo mod_initialized/D | adb -k /stand/vmunix /dev/mem

You can resolve this issue by using the following procedure
1. cd /stand/build

2. /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s system

3. mk_kernel -s system

4. kmupdate /stand/build/vmunix_test

5. shutdown -r 0

Note: Do not use reboot.
