System roles are used by internal switch processes and include the following: bin, daemon, sys, adm, tty, disk, lp, mem, kmem, wheel, mail, news, uucp, man, dip, ftp, nobody, users, floppy, console, utmp, and slocate.

For new accounts, the name must be unique and must begin with an alphabetic character.

In an Logical Fabric-enabled environment, this operand specifies the account's role for all Logical Fabrics provided with the Logical Fabric list. When you create a user account in an Logical Fabric-enabled environment, you can specify only one role for the user. This role is associated with each of the Logical Fabric IDs in the specified LF_ID_list. Once the account is created, you can use the --addlf option to create another list of Logical Fabric IDs with its own set of associated roles. You can assign any role to the account, user-defined or default. Use the roleconfig --show command for a listing of valid roles. This operand is required with the --add option; it is optional with the --change option. Specifies the home Logical Fabric depending on the environment. This operand is optional.
