don't have vxadv driver only on 11.20?

I have Online JFS installed and configured, but no vxadv. It doesn't appear withing SAM driver list. How do I get it ,and install it?
I do have vxbase in /stand/system.

Thanks,

I don't see a 'vxadv' for 11.20 and this is the only patch: PHSS_28579

http://www1.itrc.hp.com/service/patch/patchDetail.do?BC=patch.breadcrumb.pdb|patch.breadcrumb.search|&patchid=PHSS_28579&context=hpux:800:11:20

Use the procedure listed below to add the driver 'vxadv' into the system file under 11.20. Note that its a little different procedure then those used before 11.20.

# cd /stand
# cp /stand/system /stand/system_old
# vi /stand/system
scroll down to driver section and add 'vxadv'. Save and exit.

# mk_kernel -s /stand/system -o /stand/vmunix

# cd /
# shutdown -r now

Also refer to this link since there are a couple of alternative ways of using mk_kernel:

I'm so sorry.

It is 10.20 server, not 11.20

Big difference.

# /usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -v -s /stand/build/system
# vi /stand/build/system
scroll down to driver section and add in vxadv driver
save and exit
# mk_kernel -s /stand/build/system
# kmupdate
# cp /stand/system /stand/system_old
# cp /stand/build/system /stand/system
# cd /
# shutdown -r now
