role init

Initializes (creates) the named role on the current partition / slot, if applicable.

Use the command role list to see which roles are possible on the current partition/slot.

The Auditor role can exist only on the HSM's administrative partition, and shares that partition with the HSM Security Officer or SO. The Auditor role cannot be initialized by another role. Therefore, if the HSM SO is currently logged in, the SO must log out before you run role init to create the Auditor.

When the Auditor role is created, it has no domain set. To allow Auditor to clone, you must log in as Auditor and run the command role setdomain. See role setdomain.
