From the webpage, looks like it's limited to Windows, Solaris, and Linux.....Of 
course, it could certainly serve up LDAP to any platform, including AIX, it's 
just the program itself needs to run on one of the three aforementioned OSes.

Is there an AIX version of tnsManager?

We downloaded it and did manage to get it running on Windoze as well as Linux.  
It is not bad, except that your names are restricted to the first . in the 
name.  In our case CORE.PROD.MMS.US got tied up with CORE.TEST.MMS.US.  Type 
either into tnsping and you got the first one that answered.  You have to 
change them to CORE_PROD_MMS_US.  Phooey!

After much experimenting w/ OID, I discovered a much simpler solution, called 
tnsManager.

See:

I looked at that a few months ago.

Now I can't recall if I got it to work or not.

The problem I see with that is the inevitable issues with any TNS name
resolution errors, and working with support.
