You cannot download drivers, only updates.
You will need AIX install media (CD / DVD) for the driver base filesets.
If the adapter was released after your level of AIX media then download or ask your supplier for a media refresh at the level required to support your new adapter.
What type of adapter is it?

Fibre filesets:

devices.common.IBM.fc.rte
devices.common.IBM.fc.hba-api
devices.fcp.disk.rte
devices.fcp.disk.array.diag
devices.fcp.disk.array.rte
devices.fcp.tape.rte
devices.scsi.disk.rte

Driver Filesets:

IBM FC 6227: devices.pci.df1000f7
IBM FC 6228: devices.pci.df1000f9
IBM FC 6239: devices.pci.df1080f9
IBM FC 5716: devices.pci.df1000fa

NAME
uk -- SCSI user-level driver SYNOPSIS
uk* at scsibus? target ? lun ? DESCRIPTION
The uk driver provides support for a process to address devices on the SCSI bus for which there is no configured driver. A SCSI adapter must also be separately configured into the system before this driver makes sense. KERNEL CONFIGURATION
If a count is given, that number of uk devices will be configured into the NetBSD kernel. IOCTLS
The uk driver has no ioctls of its own but rather acts as a medium for the generic scsi(4) ioctls. These are described in <sys/scsiio.h>. FILES
/dev/uk[0-255] unknown SCSI devices. DIAGNOSTICS
All scsi(4) debug ioctls work on uk devices. SEE ALSO
ioctl(2), cd(4), ch(4), scsi(4), sd(4), ss(4), st(4) HISTORY
The uk driver appeared in 386BSD 0.1. BSD
October 11, 1993 BSD
