Allow Admins to run lshardware, lsservicestatus, and lsportstats commands

At Citi they valut the superuser password and can only check it out of vault with a change record or trouble ticket. Having the ability to have storage admins run the above commands will simplify reporting and troubleshooting. They need to be able to run the above commands on a daily bases and feed into splunk dashboard.
