vCenter升级过程中因密码过期导致的问题处理

今天在升级vCenter 7.0时，升级检查时提示错误，错误日志显示如下：

2021-02-19T06:12:41.374Z - debug: Failed to get url of file in guest vm:ServerFaultCode: Failed to authenticate with the guest operating system using the supplied credentials.

经过检查发现是vCenter的root密码过期导致，ssh登录vCenter，进入shell，执行：

root@vcsa [ ~ ]# chage -l root
You are required to change your password immediately (root enforced)
chage: PAM: Authentication token is no longer valid; new one required

说明root的密码过期，修改密码即可：

root@vcsa [ ~ ]# passwd
New password: 
Retype new password: 
passwd: password updated successfully

然后重新执行升级程序检查，通过。
