UCS Director Admin Password Reset

[Sunny Vasu]

I'm trying to find the correct option to reset the Admin password in UCS Director, as it's failing when I try to log in. I can access Shell_Admin and can access the menu to 29) Reset MySQL User password. Is that the same thing?

We have a couple of these UCS Directors and for some unknown reason both seem to be doing the same thing.

Can someone please help with this?

Looking through the discussion's I don't see any previous answer to this issue.
