Disk util shows the encrypted disk I am using for time machine with the following info:

disk-info

But the Menu entry "file -> Change Password" is greyed out. Tried to turn to the command line, I found this instructions, and the first part works nicely:

> diskutil cs list

But then:

> diskutil cs passwd 253049D8-C1A5-41B1-A9C5-788AA41E0157 -oldpassphrase whatever -newpassphrase whattheheck
diskutil: did not recognize coreStorage verb "passwd"; type "diskutil coreStorage" for a list
