I'm not sure, but I think option A is incorrect because it would defeat the purpose of having the logon account associated with the root account.

I agree with Teri, option C seems like the most logical choice because it ensures secure access to the root account.

I think option C is the correct answer. The Vault administrator would use the associated logon account to login first, and then use the SU command to log in as root with the password stored in the Vault.

I think the CPM will log in first with the logon account, then run the SU command to log in as root using the password in the Vault.
