Maestro Madness
Hi Checkmates,
We able to see "bashxx" instead of "Expert with hostname".
In clish mode its showing as per the expectation 👍
Able to run Expert related command👍
1. For testing we change the shell to /bin/bash/ but no luck 👎
Reboot is Pending for test but can't because its a live environment.
Please help if any one face this kind of issue or anyone have any suggestion.

Your admin shell is set to bash: admin:x:0:0::/home/admin:/bin/bash, that's why.
Set to cli.sh, similar to "monitor" user. It is most probably was changed manually.
That's not the problem. The problem is the prompt is showing 'bash-4.4#', which happens when the /etc/bashrc isn't run for some reason.
With the user's shell set to /bin/bash, BASH should be launched as an interactive shell and a login shell. Both of those should cause the /etc/bashrc to be run. When the user's shell is set to /etc/cli.sh and they elevate to expert, BASH is launched as an interactive shell (so /etc/bashrc still runs) but not a login shell. Since it clearly isn't working as expected, maybe /etc/bashrc isn't readable?
Did not know that, learned something new.
Yes correct explanation about my issue.
Only I need to know solution and the difference between them like Expert and bash name as per the screenshot.
@_Val_ is 100% right, as usual. You need to change the shell...so /bin/bash is to expert mode right away and /etc/cli.sh is regular shell.
