Ha! This is quite simple to solve: your "/var" filesystem (/dev/hd9var) is full and AIX systems dislike this state of affairs that much they usually refuse to boot.

Boot in single-user mode (or even in service mode), mount the rootvg and make some space available in /var. This should do the trick.

I hope this helps.
