Hi ,

Looks like you have N9k with ACI .. ?

if yes , try the below steps:

1. To boot into the ACI image, configure the switch to not boot from NXOS using the <no boot nxos> command. After this, save the configuration <copy  running-config  startup-config>

4. After bootup of the ACI image .login to the switch using the admin account. There is no password.

5. After booting to the ACI image and logging in,
