Michael, 

the rc.local AIX example for restarting the LDM at boot time
looks like:

        LDMBIN=/opn/ldm/bin

        if [ -x $LDMBIN/ldmadmin ] ; then
                PATH=$PATH:$LDMBIN:/usr/local/bin; export PATH
                echo "starting $LDMBIN/rpc.ldmd using ldmadmin start."
                /bin/su - ldm -c "$LDMBIN/ldmadmin start"
        fi


This is also described in the Site Managers guide in the 
"Ensuring that the LDM System is Started at Boot Time"
section
