Glassfish: How to do asadmin commands without password?

every time I enter a CLI-command for glassfish like this asadmin start-instance i1 I am prompted to enter the admin-username and admin-password.

How can I disable the need for entering these credentials?

I plan to write scripts for running commands like this and I think it’s not possible to enter the credentials in a bash script.

Thanks

You can set the password from a file instead of entering the password at the command line.

The –passwordfile option takes the file containing the passwords:

AS_ADMIN_PASSWORD=value
AS_ADMIN_ADMINPASSWORD=value
AS_ADMIN_USERPASSWORD=value
AS_ADMIN_MASTERPASSWORD=value
