I am not sure whether the Rational site has a proper documentation for the purify installation on hpux for any changes on the kernel parameters on hp.

What server you are using?How much memory you have?
What are the kernel parameter values?

You should start debugging from the maximum data size,stack size and text size for a process on the kernel.

Hi

I have seen this on the net as a purify problem so ask rational

Just went through the rational site,
it recommends latest linker and libc patches on the system.
make sure you update the appropriate patches for the hp version

Thanks
