Known Issues:

  • On HP Integrity Itanium® servers, if the Aries option is set to -pa_os_cpu globally, HP-UX Java incorrectly runs PA binaries instead of IA binaries.   This happens silently without any messages. The performance degrades by 2-3 times.   The problem is fixed for JDK releases beginning with 5.0.14, but it is seen across previously released JDKs.


  • fileChannel.map is implemented using mmap on the underlying operating system.   On HP Integrity Itanium® servers running HP-UX 11i, multiple mmap calls of overlapping regions of a single file with the MAP_SHARED flag specified in the mmap call, would result in an error.   (See the mmap manpages for more details.)

    To workaround this problem, -Xmpas:on can be used.   For an mpas process, each call to mmap is independent of other mappings made by the same process.

    java -d32 -Xmpas:on <java class>
    java -d64 -Xmpas:on <java class>

    This causes the mpas-enabled Java executable java_q4p to be run, which exists for both 32 and 64 bit.   Using -Xmpas:on might have a slight negative performance impact.

    -Xmpas is available on Java 5.0.00 (or later) and Java 1.4.2.06 (or later).
