OK, I'll explain more detailed what i mean.

This probably explains it. If you have a NIM-Server (i have written a short introduction to this, have a look at the pinned threads here) in your company you might find this package there. If you do and if your system is configured to be a NIM-client to this server you can do a "smitty nim" and select "Install Software" from the menu, then select this package and there you go. Basically NIM is a software repository (-server) in the AIX environment.

In principle: yes, updating is a simple operation. But being completely new to the environment perhaps any simple operation is complicated, so you should stay away from this or let someone experienced do it. You might have to take into account some software or hardware-quirks your environment has, etc., etc.. Nobody can tell you all the necessary things to watch out for over the net, so i do not even try. (Sorry, but as much as I'd like to help i can't press the experience of 25 years AIX into a few lines here.)

My advice is to get professional support and - no offense - let that do someone who is qualified.

I hope this helps.
