Edit the backup file by using a text editor.  Manually enter the management password as if you were going to manually add the management credentials from the console or ssh.

the credential on backup file are crypted, i can write clear text? is tediuos reset the system, and the reset password command don't work...

 

I never tried doing this with a backup that was encrypted. If you can open it in a text editor, then give it a try, but might be easier to just backup the 5508 unencrypted.
