This video covers how to recover lost ESXi password using storage controller VM. For pre HXDP 3.5 cluster you can recover using SSH keys and for HXDP 3.5 and higher version you can recover using hxuser.
We are currently using HXDP version 3.5(2g),we have lost the password for ESXI host & we followed the same procedure you have provided in the video
1. Storage controller >> /opt/springpath/storfs-support/getEsxConnectionInfo.sh >> ssh hxuser@172.21.x.x >> password : EJ\"?id?M(87#9Ab still it is not accepting password
