No option to use sudo/su from admin CLI account

This refers to a new CSPC 2.7 build.

 

I note that it is no longer possible to su or use sudo from the CLI ‘admin’ account.

If we have account issues and require to access as root, how do we elevate to root given that (quite rightly) direct ssh access at root is disabled?

Jarrett

Ah - sorry I was not sufficiently verbose; the specific scenario is that where the ‘collectorlogin’ account is locked…
