hi,
if you are using default hpux file system then you can refer below procedure.
first check free PE,

1. Login via MP and login to CO
2. Boot the server into Single User mode.
# shutdown -ry now
4) The below message will come

To discontinue, press any key within 10 seconds.

When prompted, press "ESC" to interrupt the boot.

5) Boot from the primary device and invoke ISL interaction.

Main menu... > bo pri

NOTE: If prompted to interact with ISL, respond "Y"

6) Boot into single user mode
ISL> hpux -is

NOTE: Nothing will be mounted.

# fsck -y
# mount /var

7) Extend the logical volume that holds the filesystem.
# /sbin/lvextend -L 9760 /dev/vg00/lvol8

(NOTE: the -L option is the NEW size
The new size of /var will be 9760 MB)

8) Extend the file system.
