I was running TSM 5.1.7.x on AIX 5.1 32-bit for a few months, no problems.
I am now running TSM 5.2.1.1 on AIX 5.2 64-bit.

After upgrading to AIX 5.1, you need to remove the
tivoli.tsm.devices.aix43.rte fileset and install tivoli.tsm.devices.aix5.rte
(base level plus any updates as needed). This will require a reboot. After
rebooting, configure your TSM devices with 'smit tsm_devices' and you're done.
No need to reinstall all TSM filesets nor restore the database.

The TSM for AIX Quick Start manual describes everything pretty well.
