Hi all.
I have an internal hard disk, auxiliary to my startup disk, which is CoreStorage encrypted, originally via diskutil cs. I am trying to change the password to one that is more secureI dutifully read the manpage and came up with the following command:

Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
