vcsa 6 login and password - password reset or recovery?

[ps003]

successfully upgraded from vcsa5.5 to v6, but we can't login to the console.

tried the previous username/password combination but no luck.

tried the administrator@vsphere.local credentials with no luck.

2 Questions.

1. does anyone know what the default values would be?
2. How to perform a password recovery/reset on vcsa6?

Have you tried the password reset steps for 5.5 ?

You need to reboot the VCSA in order to try this, but i can't see a procedure for v6.0 and don't have one setup in my Lab at the moment.
