azcopy issues

While running azcopy on a vm, if we open a new session to that vm we get prompted for password when we sudo to root.

However if we kill azcopy, then we can sudo to root without the password as normal.

Does azcopy block root access while it's running?

    @MARTIN, JOHN E
    I tested this using a RHEL 9.4 VM and was able to upload to a storage container while logging in then running sudo su. Can you let me know what actions you are doing via azcopy and what OS you are using? Is this something that can be reproduced?
