I'm using nrpe with check_disk on aix with no problems.
I think nrpe might be your missing piece of the puzzle.

Honestly, it is going to depend on the plugin. While a vast resource, most of the plugins that are contributed to the Exchange come from 3rd parties and just simply need to be tested on your platform from the commandline to make sure you get the desired results.

We have both, the NRPE AIX agent and a Wizard developed (AIX 6.1 is supported). They are not "production ready", yet but will be soon.
Would you be interested in beta testing them?
