421:. I think there is enough RS that mentions this to demonstrate notability as an independent article. A search for the exact phrase "AIX Object Data Manager" on Google Scholar gets 11 hits; removing "AIX" gets more hits (not all of which are about the article topic, but some probably are.) Likewise the exact phrase "AIX Object Data Manager" gets 16 results on Google Books; several of these might be discounted as being IBM RedBooks, but there is at least 5 books mentioning it which can't be dismissed in this way. (And once again, searching for "Object Data Manager" will find more hits, some of which are likely about this, but some are also about other things with the same name.)
297:, the burden of which is citation. If the claim is made that it is unique, that is a very specific/extraordinary claim and must be cited. That interaction is performed via API is a specific claim of functionality that needs to be cited. That users are provided with command-line utilities is a specific claim of interface, and thus needs to be cited. Without citations, this might as well be made up, and I've just addressed almost everything in the article except the name.
404:. It is important to device driver writers as well as system administrators. AIX's mechanism for storing system information in this way sets it apart from other Unix systems. It was created so that new devices could be added to a system without stopping the machine and rebuilding the kernel. In my incarnation as a UNIX system programmer I endured a move from Unix to AIX. There are independent references.
354:-style search shows many RS. I added 6 sources to the article, 5 of which are secondary RS and 3 of those are books. Multiple in-depth reliable sources show the topic to be notable. A notable topic and an article with no major insurmountable problems suggests keeping the article. --

Doesn't appear to be a notable component of the OS such that it needs to be merged with the AIX article, and as it is unsourced, I don't believe it is a merger candidate.
