Is there a standard procedure for recovering lost passwords for these

According to an AIX SME (currently working for IBM), yes, this is a
standard and apparently relatively easy procedure.
The first Google hit (he was being lazy) was this:

He says it's fairly straight forward.
He did pass along the following pro tip: "…that was a pci based
system...so he should follow the instructions section for that in the kB
link I sent…"
P.S. Please don't reply to / hijack an existing thread for a new topic.
