On my system, I found the file /smit.script which contained all the
scripts smit runs. I don't know if this file is there by default, or if
it was an option while installing (I did not install the system).
However, I do know that the scripts themselves are not stored in ODM.
However, the smit menus and their submenus are stored in ODM.

Thanks and regards,
Rajbir Bhattacharjee

That's an excerpt of the smitty command man page:

<quote>
SMIT creates two files, the smit.script file and the smit.log file.
[...] You must have write permission for the directory in which you have
requested the smit files to be written or the smit.script file and
smit.log file are not created. SMIT does not overwrite the smit.log file
or the smit.script file. The files are appended when possible.

The smit.script file automatically records the commands with the command
flags and parameters used. The smit.script file can be used as an
executable shell script to duplicate system configuration.

Take a close look at the output of

ODMDIR=/usr/lib/objrepos odmget sm_cmd_hdr

> However, the smit menus and their submenus are stored in ODM.
