Hi everyone, I need advice on where to start. We have a VCenter 7 environment with 3 hosts in a cluster. The administrator who used to manage it recently left on bad terms. Every single root, administrator@vsphere.local password was changed on all the hosts and vcenter (which is a vm!). I used to be able to get in with my domain account a month ago, but now I can't. There's also a weird 500 error about fetching identity providers. I'm completely locked out and the only one in my organization who can work on this. I have tried every way to login with every last known password before he changed them. I have physical access to the hosts and saw one guy on youtube use an Ubuntu Live CD to change a root password, but I still wouldn't be able to access vcenter. Not only that, but I don't know if the hosts can handle a failover if I take one down. Any suggestions would be appreciated. This is probably the most stressed I have been at work in a long time. Thanks.
