According to the manual, the bare miniumum is 32MB for 4.2.1 and above.
Less than that and AIX won't boot.
I think that it will actually run - barely! - with less than that: I'm
fairly sure that on the Performance course I did a few years ago we found
that it would boot with about 20MB, but 16MB wasn't sufficient.
There's a section on "Resizing or Moving the hd6 Paging Space" in the AIX
System Management Guide. There's an article in the Hints and Tips, as well.
(I think it's pretty much the same.)

Subject: Re: secondary paging
Thanks. Yes, I don't want to lose the disk redudancy by creating secondary
paging space on the mirrored disk. I have another question. I have a box
running 4.3.3 that has a 4gb real memory. I want to reduce the default
paging space hd6. But I have only 64mb space on the rootvg to create a
temporary paging space. I want to know what is the minimum temporary paging
space I need to have in the rootvg volume group?
