It is a well know problem in recover point. Please use this below mentioned steps to resolve the issue:

Note:
If you are using RP3.2.x and later,  I suggest you to follow these below mentioned steps else contact EMC helpdesk to work with a Support engineer.

1) Login to RPA box from CLI mode as User: 'security-admin' and Password: ‘security-admin'
2) Run "unlock_user” and followed by the user account "admin". It will clear the lock for your admin account.
