Nexus 3548P password recovery without losing current configuration

Like the title says I have inherited 2 of these Nexus switches which are being used in production atm. I do not have the login information for them, and while I have read the instructions for how to recover the password I cannot see it stated in those instructions if this process will lose the current configuration they are running with. Kind of a catch 22 since I need the password reset so I can backup the config on them. Can anyone advise if the standard Nexus recovery instructions will lose the current config, or if there is another way to reset/recover the password while keeping the config in tact?

Thanks in advance.

No, as long as you follow the password recovery steps for Nexus platforms, you will not loose the configuration.

 

Stay safe,
