Modify the HP-UX kernel parameters to values like those shown below (suggested guidelines).
Use the HP-UX System Administration Manager (SAM) tool to make these changes.

This short note is to let you know that I started a new thread in the support-engineering forum on the topic you raised.

For the record, in my initial research, I found that only 4 of the 8 Kernel parameters you specified have been rendered obsolete.

nfile                     maximum number of open files (system-wide) http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60105/nfile.5.html
nfile is obsolete --    http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/nfile.5.html

nsysmap             number of entries in a kernel dynamic memory allocation map http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60105/nsysmap.5.html
nsysmap is obsolete -- http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/nsysmap.5.html

nsysmap64         number of entries in a kernel dynamic memory allocation map http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60105/nsysmap.5.html
nsysmap64 is obsolete -- http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/nsysmap.5.html

semmap "specifies the size of the free-space resource map used
for allocating new System V IPC semaphores in shared memory." http://docs.hp.com/en/939/KCParms/KCparam.SemMap.html
semmap is obsolete -- 'HP-UX 11i Version 2 December 2007 Release Notes Operating Environments Update Release '
System-V
IPC Kernel Tunable Parameter (semmap)(Obsolete): The memory allocation
of semaphore sets previously controlled by semmap is now done
dynamically by the kernel. The semmap kernel parameter is no longer
tunable

nclist                   number of cblocks for pty and tty data transfers http://docs.hp.com/en/939/KCParms/KCparam.Ncallout.html
nclist is not obsolete -- http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/nclist.5.html

ncsize                  number of Directory Name Lookup Cache (DNLC) entries http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60105/ncsize.5.html
ncsize is not obsolete -- http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/ncsize.5.html

semmnu             maximum number of System V IPC undo structures for processes http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60105/semmnu.5.html
semmnu is not obsolete -- http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/semmnu.5.html

semume             maximum number of System V IPC undo entries per process http://docs.hp.com/en/B3921-90010/semume.5.html
semume is not obsolete-- http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-60130/semume.5.html

According to HP, the file table, system memory map, and semaphore map are
all dynamically sized in the 11iv3 kernel, so tunables specifying maximum size are no longer relevant.
That Oracle's document still contains recommendations for "nfile", is mostly due to
the Feb 2007 initial release of 11iv3, which had a VERY POOR implementation of the file table structures.
Please note this has now been fixed.

As HP-UX 11iv3 has also finally implemented man pages for all the kernel tunables (or at least most of them)
, this should be considered a good starting point for further exploration on the options available.
