Secure ftp using ssl/tls

I do not use AIX nor ftps but I can make a few comments. A particular ftp program might have options for running over ssl. But you can not take just any ftp program and set a configuration option to transform it into an ftps program. It is possible that your AIX system has ftps capable ftp programs, but I would be a bit surprised if it does. You probably will need to get some software. You did not even reveal if you need client or server or both. Figure that out before you go looking for software.
ftps is still rather new and in its formative stages. Consequently there are various flavors of ftps. See implicit ssl vs explicit ssl.
I have never used ftps, but on paper it looks really great! But that is how I feel about the Itanium chip too.
It is interesting that your mainframe is using ftps already. What does it connect to?

ftp - FTP client configuration file SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and are ignored. Behavior Directives The ftp file supports the following behavior directives: FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes by default. If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is specified in /etc/default/ftp. ATTRIBUTES
