[RHEV] How do I enable, change, or disable the root password in RHEV-H?

Updated -

Issue

During the RHEV-Hypervisor (RHEV-H) installation procedure, it is possible to not set the root password. In this case, you will not be able to login as root to the node. The RHEV-Manager (RHEV-M) can still communicate with the RHEV-H node using a private key exchanged during the node approval process.
