Welcome!

It kills with -KILL or -9 so there is no further (log-)action possible by the killed process.
I think you cannot find more details.

Recommendations:

Monitor the memory usage, and set an alert if it has an increasing trend.

Consult the IBM documentation. For example

On top what MIG said, I have more the impression its the application itself that did hara-kir, which would not be the first time I see such with JAVA apps in AIX, I had often the case in AIX, when executing heavy SAS application, it could not wait for memory to free...
when you see such message:

*Class: S*
*Type: PERM*

It means also it will happen again if not already did and was unnoticed...
And what followed in the logs shows exactly what...

So go and get extra swap by the sysadms
