First you need to check the following
1- Check the locale that installed on the system.
Code:
$locale -a

Code:
$/usr/sbin/swlist -l fileset International

or
Code:
 $swlist -l product | grep -i Inter

If it was not installed, you can install it from the HP-UX Core media via swinstall.

Once the language has been installed, then you can proceed to set the LANG environment variable for the user requiring the Arabic character support.
Have look a here.
For Arabic (Saudi Arabia), as an example use any of the following:
1) ar_SA.arabic8
2) ar_SA.iso88596
3) ar_SA.utf8

For example, if you are using ar_SA.arabic8, then:

Set for .dtprofile or .profile :

Code:
export LANG=ar_SA.arabic8

Set for .cshrc or .login,

Code:
setenv LANG ar_SA.arabic8

For further information, look at the document "Configuring HP-UX for Different Languages" at:


For the other part of the question
Quote:
also there is any website provide vm for hpunix for testing.
If you mean some site to give shell there are such sites such as polarhome.com
If you mean some VM to run on some x86 or x64 VM Player , I believe this is not possible HP-UX runs only on IA64 or PA-RISC architectures only .

locale::codes::langvar

Locale::Codes::LangVar(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangVar(3pm)

NAME

       Locale::Codes::LangVar - standard codes for language variation identification

SYNOPSIS

	  use Locale::Codes::LangVar;

	  $lvar = code2langvar('acm');		       # $lvar gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic'
	  $code = langvar2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm'

	  @codes   = all_langvar_codes();
	  @names   = all_langvar_names();

DESCRIPTION

       The "Locale::Codes::LangVar" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language variations, such as those as defined in
       the IANA language registry.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language
       registry codes will be used.

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language variations. A code set may be specified using either a name, or
       a constant that is automatically exported by this module.

       For example, the two are equivalent:

	  $lvar = code2langvar('en','alpha-2');
	  $lvar = code2langvar('en',LOCALE_CODE_ALPHA_2);

       The codesets currently supported are:

       alpha
	   This is the set of alphanumeric codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'arevela' for Eastern Armenian.

	   This code set is identified with the symbol "LOCALE_LANGVAR_ALPHA".

	   This is the default code set.

ROUTINES

       code2langvar ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       langvar2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
       langvar_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
       all_langvar_codes ( [CODESET] )
       all_langvar_names ( [CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::rename_langvar  ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::add_langvar  ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::delete_langvar  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::add_langvar_alias  ( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::delete_langvar_alias  ( NAME )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::rename_langvar_code  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::add_langvar_code_alias  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::LangVar::delete_langvar_code_alias  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
	   These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
