You can use the same oracle instance on AIX to create your repository and run the management server on it and then you can connect to it using OEM clients from any platform. The steps to create the management server on AIX are as follows ...

1. Login to AIX as oracle user

2. Invoke the oracle enterprise manager configuration assistant to create the repository...

$ emca


3. Follow the GUI instructions to create the OEM repository.

4. Once after the repository creation gets over, you have to start the management server on the AIX system..

$ oemctrl start oms


5. Confirm that OMS had been started as:

$ oemctrl status oms sysman/oem_temp


6. Now remember to start the intelligent agent and the data gatherer as follows:

$ lsnrctl dbsnmp_start
$ vppcntl -start


7. Confirm that they have been started as follows:

$ lsnrctl dbsnmp_status
$ vppcntl -status


8. Now on your windows NT open the OEM client and enter

username: sysman
password: oem_temp
host: AIX-Hostname


9. Now use the discoverer to discover the node and start working
