role resetpw

Resets the password for a specified role. On Luna HSMs, the Partition SO can reset the Crypto Officer password or black PED key only if HSM policy 15: Enable SO reset of partition PIN is enabled. By default, this policy is not enabled and changing it is destructive.

If the target role is not on the current partition, you must specify the target role's partition's slot.

NOTE Resetting passwords for roles on partitions other than the current active partition is possible only from the administrative partition.
