The passphrase to be changed must be +supplied interactively or via --key-file. The new passphrase can be +supplied interactively or in a file given as the positional argument. + +If a key-slot is specified (via --key-slot), the passphrase for that +key-slot must be given and the new passphrase will overwrite the +specified key-slot. If no key-slot is specified and there is still a +free key-slot, then the new passphrase will be put into a free key-slot +before the key-slot containing the old passphrase is purged. If there is +no free key-slot, then the key-slot with the old passphrase is +overwritten directly. + +*WARNING:* If a key-slot is overwritten, a media failure during this +operation can cause the overwrite to fail after the old passphrase has +been wiped and make the LUKS container inaccessible. + +*NOTE:* some parameters are effective only if used with LUKS2 format +that supports per-keyslot parameters. For LUKS1, PBKDF type and hash +algorithm is always the same for all keyslots. + +** can be [--key-file, --keyfile-offset, --keyfile-size, +--new-keyfile-offset, --iter-time, --pbkdf, --pbkdf-force-iterations, +--pbkdf-memory, --pbkdf-parallel, --new-keyfile-size, --key-slot, +--force-password, --hash, --header, --disable-locks, --type, +--keyslot-cipher, --keyslot-key-size, --timeout, --verify-passphrase]. + +include::man/common_options.adoc[] +include::man/common_footer.adoc[] -- cgit v1.2.3
