HP-UX Reference (11i v2 07/12) - 5 Miscellaneous (vol 9)

expanded_node_host_names(5) expanded_node_host_names(5)
(Tunable Kernel Parameters)
When this tunable value is 0 (off), the system interfaces and commands which set node and host names
quietly truncate inputs to 8 or 64 bytes, respectively. This behavior is consistent with previous
HP-UX ver-
sions. There is no error nor warning provided.
Installation of optional kernel software, from HP or other vendors, may cause changes to tunable parame-
ter values. After installation, some tunable parameters may no longer be at the default or recommended
values. For information about the effects of installation on tunable values, consult the documentation for
the kernel software being installed. For information about optional kernel software that was factory
installed on your system, see HP-UX Release Notes at
http://docs.hp.com
