    The filesystems in phase 2 seem to mounting in the wrong order, which results in the errors in phase 3?

    Turns out this is a known issue. It's addressed in Service Pack 2 for AIX 6.1 TL3.

    1. Apply AIX 6.1 TL3 SP2 to the NIM master via 'smitty update_all'. Reboot.
    2. Install the 'bos.alt_disk_install.rte.6.1.3.1.U' fileset into the SPOT i.e. spotaix61031.
    3. Re-try the nimadm operation.

    Worked for me.
