Hi Krishna,
Install the BIND 9.2.0 from http://software.hp.com

Read this installation doc:
http://docs.hp.com/en/5991-0759/ch02s04.html?jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN

-Decide on and register (if necessary) a DNS domain name.
-Update your /etc/hosts file with all known hostnames and IP addresses. Update the hostnames to be Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDN). Use the old hostname as an alias.
-create a working directory for the DNS database files.
-Create the DNS database files using the hosts_to_named utility.
-Set up the rndc configuration file.
-Start the named daemon.
-Set up the resolver configuration files.
-Test DNS functionality

Thanks & Regards
