[Naveen Shetty]

Hi All,

Kindly if someone can provide a solution for the below problem.

I have a K460 Server with HP-Ux 11.0 on 64 Bit. When I build the kernel thru mk_kernel, server is giving message a below & comes back to root prompt without rebuilding the kernel.

Error Message:
--------------------
## mk_kernel -v
Building a new kernel based on template file "/stand/system"

---------------------------


I have already tried copying a earlier copy of /stand/system file & rebuild but in vain..!

Kindly suggst..!
Thanks in advance..!

Hi the Problem is the no of params specified in the system file is greater than the max possible that can be supplied , I am posting my system file of the k460 system, please save your copy and try this one or remove some of the defined params from your file ..like
x25idmap
x25plp
x25sentr

Hi

it seem that it could be 2 things :

1. check to see in you have a software or a patch that didnt install correctly .

check it with swlist -l fileset -a state > a.out

and check to see if there a software that you diednt install correct .
you can also check the /var/adm/sw/swagent.log

if you can see a software that didnt install correctly please remove it and reinstall it again .

2. This error is most likely caused by something irregular in the /usr/conf/master.d directory.
So please look in this directory for files which have been recently created ("ll -c") or modified ("ll"), have strange names or/and content, etc..

please give an input if it help you

Hi

if you have a problem with yor system file why not start by creating a new system file from the current kernel.

/usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s system

now try building your kernel

cheers
