Yes, it is apparently-which is why I mentioned that you'll need to contact IBM support to see if you can obtain those credentials.

Thanks Much James for sharing this. I will go through it. However, as per the VM Team root or sudo privilege user is required to complete the migration steps.

I found a couple links that might help in your situation?
https://communities.vmware.com/t5/VMware-vSphere-Discussions/Migrating-from-Nutanix-AHV-to-VMware-ESXi/td-p/1823941

If you find that the root password is absolutely required, you'll need to open up a ticket with IBM support to see if they will divulge that secret sauce to you.

Hello Seniors, Hope all is well.
I want to know that, if we can migrate IBM Guardium Appliances from Nutanix Hypercoverged system with hardware as Nutanix To >>> Dell Converged System with Hardware as Dell FX , MX and Hypervisor as VMWare.
Since, during Migration our VM Team needs root credentials of existing Guardium Appliances to complete the full migration. Can anyone confirm on this , if this migration is possible/feasible. thanks a ton!
