Resolution

Make sure running at root user.

Type the following commands to create folder and download robot installation package:

#cd /tmp

#mkdir nimsoft

#cd nimsoft

#wget http://support.nimsoft.com/Files/Archive/00056/nimldr-9_20.tar.z

//Note: If wget not installed, get it via:    yum install wget

#  tar -zxvf nimldr-9.20.tar.Z

//Then cd into the right OS installation folder for the machine you are on: 

#cd ./nimldr/LINUX_23_64/   << In your case use the AIX  folder.

#  chmod 777 nimldr

//To kick off the install:

#./nimldr -o 48000


Would recommend to use 7.97 robot version
