Your GUI has to run as root so it is a question of su or login as root and launch your GUI as root... there are other ways but they are security breaches so I wont mention them...

lsmsa(8) System Manager's Manual lsmsa(8)
NAME
lsmsa - Starts the Storage Administrator (SA) graphical user interface (GUI)
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/lsmsa
DESCRIPTION
SA is the graphical user interface for LSM. SA runs on a Tru64 UNIX system on which LSM is initialized and running. The SA client runs on
any machine that supports the Java Runtime Environment.
Issue the lsmsa command to display the SA main window. This window serves both as the starting point for all SA GUI-managed tasks and as a
monitor for LSM file status. When the main window is displayed, a hierarchical view of LSM objects is presented. Clicking on an object dis-
plays the objects of that type and a table of information about them.
The SA GUI requires that the SA daemon be running. It is automatically started at boot time. Under normal conditions, the daemon does not
need to be run manually.
However, if SA does not connect to the server, stop the SA daemon by entering:
/sbin/init.d/lsmsa stop
Restart the daemon, by entering:
/sbin/init.d/lsmsa start
Then run /usr/bin/lsmsa as before.
RESTRICTIONS
To use this utility, you must be the root user or be a member of the LSMSA administration group in the /etc/group file (lsmsa_admin by
default). In addition, you must register the Advanced File System Utilities license.
FILES
The SA preferences file stored in the user's home directory.
