Last updated: 2024-01-06 17:32:18

This document describe how to troubleshoot failed or invalid password resets for a Windows Server 2012 CVM.
Problem
After the CVM password is reset, the system prompts The system is busy, and your instance password failed to be reset (7617d94c).
After the CVM password is reset, the new password does not take effect, and the login password remains the old one.
Cause
Possible causes are:
The cloudbase-init component in the CVM is damaged, modified, disabled, or not started.
The cloudbase-init component for password reset is blocked by the third-party security program (e.g., 360 Total Security or Huorong Security) installed on the CVM.
