      "Failed to validate root password. Provide correct root password to authorize this action."

Environment

  • Aria Suite Lifecycle 8.x
  • vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager 8.x

Cause

This is by design behavior for security reasons.

Resolution

Only the local Lifecycle Manager admin accounts admin@local and vcfadmin@local have the permissions to view locker passwords.
