Once brought to the Management page for your server you will then head to the "Options" page, there you will look for "Root/Administrator Password" and click the "Reset Password".
This action will set a new root or administrator password. If the QEMU guest agent is not installed on your server, or if it has been removed, this operation will fail. The server must be running for this action to be performed.
