I had a woring ESXi 6.5 installation. SSH and access to portal was possible.
I had the need to upgrad to latest ESXi 7. I updated it from 6.5 -> 6.7 -> 7.0.
After updating, the datastore was no more recognized. Read in some forums that it needs a licnese. So I installed a license and rebooted.
After this reboot, the root password does not work anymore. Dont know what went wrong in between.
Anyone can give any clues?
