How to recover root password for utility node

I changed, and then forgot, the root password for the Avamar utility node.  I know the lockbox password.  How can I use the lockbox to recover the root password?

There are no procedures in the security guide for recovering the root password.  All the procedures in the security guide first require you to log in as root.

The only option is the reboot the utility node in single user mode and change the root password, once the password is reset use the change-passwords command in avamar to update the information through the grid
