Have a look at IBMs "Redbook" series, they are usually very well written and quite exhaustive.
Specifically installing a VIOS: consider doing it via a NIM server. See the man page of the "installios" command, but you might want to read up about virtualisation concepts from IBM first.
Basically, a VIOS is heavily customized AIX with a lot of added commands and specialized middleware to fulfill its purpose. Because it comes from a time when IBM was "appliance-crazy", you can't administrate it like any other machine but have to learn other - similar, but different - commands to do what you can do on any other system.
I hope this helps.

Tk_InitConsoleChannels(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_InitConsoleChannels(3)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Tk_InitConsoleChannels - Install the console channels as standard channels
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_InitConsoleChannels(interp)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Interpreter in which the console channels are created.
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Tk_InitConsoleChannels is invoked to create a set of console channels and install them as the standard channels. All I/O on these channels
will be discarded until Tk_CreateConsoleWindow is called to attach the console to a text widget.
This function is for use by shell applications based on Tk, like wish, on platforms which have no standard channels in graphical mode, like
Win32.
The interp argument is the interpreter in which to create and install the console channels.
NOTE: If this function is used it has to be called before the first call to Tcl_RegisterChannel, directly, or indirectly through other
channel functions. Because otherwise the standard channels will be already initialized to the system defaults, which will be nonsensical
for the case Tk_InitConsoleChannels is for.
