Question about fhir-persistence-schema-4.11.1-cli.jar

Hello everybody!
I have question about fhir-persistence-schema-4.11.1-cli.jar tool from here:
https://github.com/LinuxForHealth/FHIR/tree/main/fhir-persistence-schema

Command to create the target schema:

java -jar fhir-persistence-schema-4.11.1-cli.jar \
--db-type postgresql \
--prop-file fhirdb.properties \
--schema-name fhirdata \
--create-schemas

works fine.
Command to create the tables and indexes:

java -jar fhir-persistence-schema-4.11.1-cli.jar \
--db-type postgresql \
--prop-file fhirdb.properties \
--schema-name fhirdata \
--update-schema \
--grant-to fhirserver \
--pool-size 1

created tables and indexes well but finished with error:

org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: role "fhirserver" does not exist
com.ibm.fhir.database.utils.api.UndefinedNameException: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: role "fhirserver" does not exist

Is this a critical error for FHIR Server? How can I fix it?

The tool does not (can not?) create the user on the database, so thats a prereq.
