Hi Rahul,

According to SAP note # 1329878 - Using non-default memory base page sizes on HP-UX Itanium

we dont have SAPJVM on our landscape. when i try to install jdk switch to SAPJVM its giving me the same error "Could not create the Java virtual machine".

Hi Vipul,

From Snote: 172747     check parameter "base_pagesize".

HP-UX 11iv2  (11.23)

• CHECK a kernel parameter:      "kctune <parameter name>"
• SET a kernel parameter:        "kctune <parameter name>=<value>"
• check DEFAULT parameter value: "kctune -v <parameter name>"

We followed Snote 1329878, and  set value 4KB. Got resolved our issue.

As per my understading this parameter is related to the HP-UX kernel Not related to the SAPJVM.

Regards,

Rahul
