role changepw

Change the password, PED key secret, or activation challenge password for a specified role.

Syntax

role changepw -name <role> [-oldpw <oldpassword>] [-newpw <newpassword>] [-prompt] [-force]

Argument(s)	Shortcut	Description
-name <role>	-n	Role to change password for.
-oldpw <oldpassword>	-old	Current password (for application partition on PW authenticated HSM) or current challenge secret (for application partition on PED authenticated HSM). If you include option -oldpw the HSM assumes that you wish to change the challenge secret, which is the "secondary credential". This applies to Crypto Officer and Crypto User, which each have primary and secondary credentials, but not to Partition SO, which has only primary credential. If you omit option -oldpw the HSM assumes that you wish to change the "primary credential" or PED key secret. Required if you wish to change the secondary credential.
-newpw <newpassword>	-new	New password (for application partition on PW authenticated HSM) or new challenge secret (for application partition on PED authenticated HSM). Required if you have already provided an -oldpw.
-prompt	-p	Prompt for challenges (challenges will be hidden by *)
-force	-f	Force the action. Use this option to bypass the warning about primary/secondary credentials on a PED-authenticated HSM, as shown in the example.
