AIX 5.3 Using sudo to control smit

Does anyone have any experience using sudo to control smit on AIX 5.3?

These are the smit commands that I want certain users to execute:
Code:
# Cmnd alias specification
Cmnd_Alias SMIT = /bin/smit hacmp, \
/bin/smit pxdam, \
/bin/smit cl_lsuser, \
/bin/smit cl_users, \
/bin/smit cl_passwd

Specifically, I am having issues with smit cl_lsuser and smit cl_users. I get these messages:
Code:
0518-506 odmget: Cannot open object class HACMPnode
Check path name and permissions.
cl_lsuser: Unable to determine node list for the cluster.
0518-506 odmget: Cannot open object class HACMPlogs
Check path name and permissions.
The cluster log entry for cspoc.log could not be found in the HACMPlogs ODM.
Defaulting to log directory /var/hacmp/log for log file cspoc.log.

It looks like it is no longer running as root. Does anyone have any ideas? Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated.
