Supposedly it stands for "internet". It's a marketing gimmick, kind of like Oracle 8i, 9i, 10g, whatever.

Hi Randy,

HP has introduced HP-UX 11i with a new focus on the "Internet-centric" world. So "i" stands for Internet, just a marketing gimmick

Yes - it was Internet:

http://www.faqs.org/faqs/hp/hpux-faq/

"HP-UX 11.11 and later is marketed as "HP-UX 11i." The "i" stands for
"Internet" and is meant to convey that the OS is Internet-ready. Here
are the mappings from 11i versions to HP-UX versions as reported by
uname"
