Hi everyone,
I'm looking for guidance on how to recover admin access to a Panorama virtual appliance deployed on Microsoft Azure where the admin password has been lost.
**Environment:**
- Panorama Virtual Appliance on Microsoft Azure
- Authentication configured with username/password only (no SSH key pair was configured at deployment time)
- No other admin accounts available to access CLI.
- Configuration must be preserved — factory reset is lat option.
Thank you
