I believe that there is a "known problem" with client updates for AIX. I have never seen a fix posted.

I keep getting these error messages from clientupdate failing on AIX 5.2
tar: tape read error: unexpected EOF 2007-04-23 14:01:09 Upgrade failed, tar exited with status 256 tar: tape read error: unexpected EOF 2007-04-23 14:06:10 Upgrade failed, tar exited with status 256 tar: tape read error: unexpected EOF 2007-04-23 14:11:12 Upgrade failed, tar exited with status 256
I can't really tell what clientupdate is doing and I haven't been successful tracking down the problem. Has anyone seen this?
I do have clientupdate working on a couple of pilot Linux systems and it looks great over there.
