If you've manged to get locked out of your Veritas Cluster Server Cluster Manager, but you have root access to the server, you can reset your password using the following procedure.
 
#su - root
 
#hauser -list
admin
 
#hauser -update admin
 
If you receive the following error when running this command:
VCS WARNING V-16-1-11309 Configuration must be ReadWrite then, you need to put the configuration into ReadWrite mode.
 
#haconf -makerw
 
You should now be able to set password.
