The Dell PTAgent software agent running on the ESXi host creates and manages the PTAdmin user.
The agent software updates the password every 60 days.
Other users should not modify the password. 
When the PTAgent is restarted, the password is updated.
The password may be changed when recovering from an error state.

This behavior is normal and requires no intervention.
If these messages occur with excessive frequency, reach out to Dell support for review.
