Yeah Agree to you.

But requirement is like I dont have the permission to install any utilities or generating the RSA certificate authentication. In this case do we have any way to pass the password within the script?

In such scenarios, production environment required some rights which generally developer doesnot have it. So how to bypass this thing and directly hardcode the password in the script or read it from some file.

Thanks again. Anyone faced this kind of problem or having any resolution for the same?

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-ask-password-console.service is a system service that queries the user for system passwords (such as hard disk encryption keys and
       SSL certificate passphrases) on the console. It is intended to be used during boot to ensure proper handling of passwords necessary for
       boot.  systemd-ask-password-wall.service is a system service that informs all logged in users for system passwords via wall(1). It is
       intended to be used after boot to ensure that users are properly notified.

       See the developer documentation[1] for more information about the system password logic.

       Note that these services invoke systemd-tty-ask-password-agent(1) with either the --watch --console or --watch --wall command line
       parameters.
