I'm trying to Update the my Base Omnibus/WebGUI. I do not have GUI/X11 access on my target install server and the console installer doesn't work. So I need a sample silent install file for the Fix Pack below, do you have one I can use?

Yes, You'll find a x64 Linux example below which you can modify for AIX. You will want to download and extract the zip file to create your repository. Normally I would recommend creating a INSTALL directory with a WebGUI-FP10 subdirectory to hold your repository. Once extracted you can delete the original zip files to clean up some disk space. Now that your WebGUI FP10 installation repository is created you can go to your IBMIM install location. By default this would be /opt/IBM/InstallationManager/eclipse. Then create the silent install XML file here as seen in the example below. Once that is created you can install the product using the command below:
./tools/imcl -input WebGUI-Update_linux_x64_8.1.0.10.xml -silent -acceptLicense
<variable name='sharedLocation' value='/home/netcool/IBM/IBMIMShared'/> => Set this to your Shared install location (rollback files)
<repository location='/INSTALL/WebGUI-FP10/OMNIbusWebGUIRepository/composite' temporary="true"/> => Set this to your repository location
<repository location='/INSTALL/WebGUI-FP10/OMNIbusWebGUIRepository/delta' temporary="true"/> => Set this to your repository location
<repository location='/INSTALL/WebGUI-FP10/OMNIbusWebGUIRepository/serviceDelta' temporary="true"/> => Set this to your repository location
<profile id='IBM Netcool GUI Components' installLocation='/home/netcool/IBM/netcool/gui'> => Set this to your WebGUI installation location
<data key='cic.selector.arch' value='x86_64'/> => Set this to x86_64 for linux and ppc64 for AIX
<data key='user.DashHomeDir' value='/home/netcool/IBM/JazzSM/ui'/> => Set this to your JazzSM install location
<data key='user.WasHomeDir' value='/home/netcool/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer'/> => Set this to your WebShpere install location
<data key='user.DashHomePwd' value='smadmin'/> => Set this to your smadmin password set during your JazzSM install
