The Single Sign On (SSO) is a feature of vSphere 5.1 that is an authentication broker and a security token exchange that provides a secure way to access your vSphere environment. The SSO password is essential to the vCenter install. This chapter will show you how to reset or unlock that important password. This chapter also shows how to unlock or reset the password for SSO.
