Root Access
The ability to log into the appliance as root depends on whether you have the flag in your license file. In the past, this was handled via a separate agreement, however now it is part of the standard agreement so you can have your license reissued with the root password permission included.
This article discusses how to change your root password from the control panel as well as how to request the license to get the permission to change root password: https://comm.support.ca.com/kb/requesting-and-updating-the-root-password-for-the-agile-central-onpremise-appliance/kb000010888
