Solution | Resolved LPAR VIOS IVM POWERVM AIX CD-ROM
When I restarted the LPAR after assigning it, from SMS menu I was able to detect it.
Apparently as Michael Felt said, the issue is with the AIX 5.3 ML 00 !!
With AIX 6.1 , I can assign the CD - ROM through web and it will be detected after executing cfgmgr !

cfgmgr(8) System Manager's Manual cfgmgr(8)
NAME
cfgmgr - Configuration management server
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/cfgmgr
DESCRIPTION
The cfgmgr configuration management server works with the kernel load server (kloadsrv) daemon to manage the subsystems that are dynami-
cally configurable, loadable, or both. The cfgmgr server starts up automatically when a client (such as the sysconfig command) makes a con-
figuration management request. Examples of configuration management requests are requests to configure, reconfigure, query, or unconfig-
ure a subsystem.
The cfgmgr server allows query operations from any superuser (root login), local or remote. The superuser on the local system is also
allowed to configure, reconfigure, or unconfigure local kernel subsystems. Remote access to the kernel subsystem configuration is allowed
through the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file. System administrators working on hosts listed in that file can also configure, reconfigure, or uncon-
figure local kernel subsystems. If the /etc/cfgmgr.auth file does not exist or is empty, no remote users are allowed to configure, recon-
figure, or unconfigure local kernel subsystems.
If you use the sysconfig -v command, the cfgmgr server displays debugging information to the /dev/console screen. See the sysconfig(8) ref-
erence page for more information about the -v flag.
